As the anniversary of my Grandfather's death approaches this week. I start to rethink my life. I look at everything he and my Grandmother had accomplished in their lives together. They traveled. They were married over 50 years. I still can't believe that he has been gone three years. I miss him so much.I start to think about things I want to accomplish in my life. I have always been the type of person that makes a list for everything. Shopping lists, to-do lists, packing lists, inventory lists, schedules - you name it - I had a list for it.
As I think more than usual about him this week I find it is time to look over my life list.
Ask yourself - "What are some things I dream about doing in my lifetime?"
I have things on my list that I may never accomplish but it is a dream that brings a smile to my face.
- Skiing the Swiss Alps
- Learning to cook in Tuscany
- Writing a book
Maybe I will but maybe I won't. It is still something that I can dream about. I have lots of places I want to visit too. Though a lot of my list includes doing things with my boys before they are grown up. Things I want them to experience that I have experienced. Memories that I have as a child.
- Deep Sea Fishing In Maine
- Surfing in Hawaii
As I take a moment to reminensce on my life I smile. I am happy with what I have done with my life. I am anxious to experimence more life here on Earth. I am ready to make a change in my own life. I promise myself to never give up or stop fighting for what I believe in. I promise to live life to its fullest.
What is on your life list?
