I'm not a big fan of a "bucket list." I mean, think about it. It's a list of things that people want to do before they die. By writing this list, they are focusing on what they don't have or what they haven't accomplished in their life. And in reality, how many people are truly able to accomplish everything on their bucket list by the time they die? That may cause some people to feel like they've failed at living a successful life. I don't think anyone should feel like that.
I'm more of the "enjoy life in the moment" kind of person. People often become so focused on the future or past that they ignore what's right in front of them in the present. There are so many opportunities to enjoy life just where people are but they look right over it. I understand there are times when it is needed to look in the past or plan for the future. But, when it comes to experiencing life, why? The moment you have right now is the one you can do something with. Why not enjoy it?
So. I don't have a bucket list. It's more like a "Things That Would Be Cool To Experience If I Should Happen To Get An Opportunity To Experience Them But My Life Will Be Just Fine If I Don't Experience Them List." If I ever made a list, that's more likely what it would be, maybe with a shorter title! But, I most likely won't be making a list. I've got to many things to enjoy right now, like cookie cake sitting beside me! :)
