About the small things in life that seem oh so big

To do before dying

Posted in Top 10, Thoughtful by Cheryl on 20 April 2007

No, I’m not in a particularly morbid mood, I’m just 1 1/2 hours into my Friday night relaxation and watching a program on BBC titled “50 Things to Do Before You Die”. Pretty much every single thing on the list so far has to do with various nature attractions, famous trains, and scenery. To be honest, nothing on the list is that original. Their list should be re-titled “World’s Top 50 Nature Adventures”. I mean, what about aspiring to do things for other people, or aspiring to better ourselves?

I started making a top-10 list of my own, but realized that it’s hard to make a ranked list like they attempted in the program. It seems so biased and even facetious. So, in no particular order, here are things I want to do before I go.

  • Double my cooking repertoire.
  • Travel to Asia.
  • Learn another language.
  • Write a book.
  • Get a full body massage.
  • Give something back to my parents.
  • Help people in need.
