3 things to do before you die

October 26, 2009 12:50pm CST
I'm just curious - there are some people who say there are a number of things they really need or want to do before they die. I don't have such a list and couldn't tell you that I really want to do this or that before I am old. I want to enjoy life, be happy, be proud of myself, be successful. But I couldn't say: 1. I want to do a helicopter flight 2. I want to travel the world etc. Do you have a list of things you want to do in your lifetime?

I have a lot of things I want to do in my lifetime. I guess the list would consist of: 1. I want to live in Paris (for a while, beautiful city!) 2. I wish to have my own successful business. 3. I wish to travel the world & see some amazing things. I love to travel. Those are the main things I wish to achieve although I am sure my list could go on for a while!

Big dreams. I guess you could travel to Paris and open a successful business there. You'd get all 3 in one! Do you think you'll achieve those things in your lifetime?

The three things that i will do before i die are the following: 1. make sure that my kids have enough savings to provide for their studies and until they become independent and sustainable. 2. travel to paris and the holy land with my family. 3. be sorry for all my shortcomings and affirm all the people who really loved and took care of me.

I have already accomplished my big three. Married the man of my dreams, bought a nice house and have two beautiful boys! For the rest of my future, I look at it all as the icing on the cake. 1.) I want to own and maintain a nightclub 2.) I want to travel to exotic beaches around the world 3.) I want my husbands band to get signed and have a world tour!

I will never stop dreaming, that is for sure. I think I am very fortunate to have already hit my big three life time goals and all before 30. Now I have plenty of time to dream big and work for some serious fun with my family and friends. I am really considering opening a nightclub. I think that will be next big undertaking. Should be fun and I bet I learn a lot along the way

No need to stop dreaming just because you achieved your big dreams. Good luck with your new challenges.

No don't have such a list. I am lucky lived every where in the USA except Hawaii. But have had friends that have lived there and they said that they had a bad termite problem, plus the volcano's. So if I get a chance I will visit there. But have seen all kinds of beauty and wonders of the USA and loved every moment of it. Used to drive tractor trailer when I was young and loved that too. So I have done many things that a lot of people have never done. I am happy with my life and proud of what I have done in my life. So no I won't ever make a list of what I would like to do before I die. Been there done that sort of situation.

You sound as if you had a very happy life so far. I hope life keeps treating you so well.

Well it wasn't that happy but I did have a pretty good time after I got grown. But my life for the last couple of years has been great. And I hope and pray that it stays as happy as I am now.

Own the world? Nah, far too much hard work. If I die I don't want to do that working every waking hour!

I would also like to visit many countries. Meet different people, try different cuisines. As a child I wanted to visit Disneyland. So I would also like to do that, even though I not a child now. If any other theme park comes up which is better than Disneyland, then I would like to visit it. And last, if possible I like to have a space ride.

Childhood dreams always stay with us. I guess disneyland allows us to be kids again!

Hmm like you, most of the things I want are more general (love, happiness, success). I want to travel, to probaly marry, to have at least one kid, to finish college, to study abroad, to visit Scandinavia, to maybe get a master's degree... I guess a lot of the things that I feel like I need to bare minimum do once in my life are things I've already done.
28 Oct 09
Sounds like a long list! I feel the same - I have done the things I think are unmissable. There is nothing major I would regret not being able to do, but loads I'd love to do.

It's quite funny that we all say we want to travel - it's a shame that we can't enjoy travelling more when life is good. It's just a question of finding the time and money. (big sigh)
