Bucket List!


Thankfully, I'm in a far better mood today, then when I placed my last post...

As the story usually goes, had multiple events worth posting about over the last month or so, but time is always evading me...but that's my usual disclaimer, so I digress..

...below are what I'm determined to do before kicking it...(not necessarily in order of performance)..

1) adopt an African child/children

2) write an auto-biography

3) star in a movie...even if only in a minor role

4) see the Pyramids

5) swim with dolphins

6) marry & raise kids

7) build an orphanage in Africa (most likely Nigeria)

8) write a novel

9) speak a word into someone's life so encouraging or beautiful they're brought to tears

10) choreograph/teach dance professionally

11) skydive

12) speak French, Dutch, Arabic, Kiswahili, Spanish & Pidgin English fluently (& maybe Japanese too, but that might be pushing it)..

13) invent something. anything.

14) build a substantial business that will support my family, as well as missions & volunteer projects around the world.

15) visit Dubai

16) learn to sing

17) take underwater coral pictures off the Great Barrier Reef

18) learn guitar or piano professionally

19) start my own charity

20) own a horse (the only pet I really want)

21) compete on a major singing or dance competition show such as Dancing with the Stars, American Idol, X Factor, etc.

22) walk the great wall of China

23) perfect Latin dance forms i.e. Salsa, Paso, Tango, etc.

24) write a screenplay or musical

25) see the Sahara (note I did not say "cross the Sahara", as that's a completely different undertaking)

26) grow dreadlocks

...and that's just the first list...

The awesome part is that this is actually doable...if I were to make a list of all I've already done in only 32 years of life, it would be at least 15 times longer than the list above...I'm excited!!

again, these are not just wishes...by God's grace, I will accomplish each of these before leaving this life...now that I've spoken it into being, it'll happen...watch as I tick them off 1 by 1...
