What's on your bucket list? (What do you want to achieve before you die?)

We all have that list of things to do before we die. For some people, the list goes on the long way, and for some, they are already content with their lives now so they don't need a wish list anymore. I have my personal long bucket list, not because I'm not happy with what I have already achieved, but because there's just still so many wonderful things to do on earth. Share with us your bucket list. Of course, you don't need to post your long list. Just the ones that's on top of your list. Before you die, what do you want to do? What do you want to see? Where do you want to go? Who do you want to meet? What crazy thing do you want to experience?

The first thing on my bucket list would be to actually make a bucket list. I think that would be the top item, its really not something that I would really have not thought about as of late. It is really interesting and there are just so many interesting things to do. So little time in this world. There are just a lot of things that I could think about. If I could, I want to discover the key to some mystery in life and how to solve it. There are a number of things in life that are strange and rather mysterious. I want to figure out what happens. Also, I'd like to make peace with everyone who has really fallen out with me at a younger age. Just to have everything really wrapped up in a nice little bow. Really so many intriguing ways to go with this.

There really is a lot of interesting things to do in this life, and I don't get people who are wanting to end their lives already. Wow, solve a mystery in life? Like what specifically? That's a good thing that you'd want to make peace with people. So we can all "rest in peace" after. :p

Oh, I haven't thought about it very much, but I would say: I want to have kids I want to own my own house I want to have my own business I want to travel to certain places: China, South America, Australia, New Zealand and so on. I want to pet a panda. But I am sure I will think of more things as I go along, life seems to work that way.

Ooh, traveling is a must for me too. I want to tour around Europe and New Zealand too. And believe it or not, I haven't stepped on American soil either. So I'd have to travel there before I die. :)

Firstly talking about the emotional part i want to create a heaven on earth in my friends, relatives hearts. That's my first every priority because today hatred is increasing rapidly no one have trust on each other. So my toppest thing on list is this first. Then i want to visit all the seven wonders of the world and really visit the places at Jerusalem where it is a religious place i always want to visit this place and see the things around since its so religious. After all these things i want to do snow mountain climbing i have been reading and seeing things on discovery channel its really a good experience to do so. Anyways the list just goes on and on what necessary is for us is if we want to achieve all these things we should have a strong desire in our mind to do so. After all it is said first a thought then a act.

if i want to be reasonable i want to travel to all exotic place on earth, then after that i want to have a big farm where i can grow old growing plants and animals... because i see that old people that work in a farm live extremly healthy and still have a strong stamina doing all farming work... but if i want to be unreasonable i want to know all things there is to know about science. How things work, how nature work, how universe work.. if i know all of that i can go in peace...

Indeed there are a lot of things to do on earth. I actually might not have a bucket list like you do, but I have so much to want to achieve and fulfill before I die. It isn't like anything that is planned. I just think that like everyone else I have the duty to do good and care for the people that are around us, especially the family and friends that are very close to us. But I what I want to achieve most is becoming a good mother to my children. I have a four year old daughter and I am 7 months pregnant. When you become a mother every effort and love is focused on them. And guiding them through every road and step they will take on in life is always my greatest responsibility because I want to give them a bright future. And life maybe hard sometimes my dear, but anything that life has to offer we need to accept them and try to improve them as much as we can to achieve happiness. You deserve to be happy. We all deserve to be happy. I feel sad to hear when you said you said you are not happy. Don't be. If your are not happy with what you achieve, I'm sure that it will come to you sooner or later. Just do the good and the right things and the rest will come.
