Kasper, Kody: Bucket List

I can only say that I wish to live my life to the fullest. Although, I would like to accomplish a few things before I ship out.


I have never claimed to be a saint, but my first item is completely selfless. I wish to leave no debt behind for my family to be forced to pay off. I want to live a financially smart life so that I can accrue zero debt and possibly leave an inheritance behind for my family to utilize accordingly.


Second, I have had some crazy experiences with emotion and I really just want my heart back. I give it away bit by bit to all of my friends and people I care about; later when they hurt me it seemed to destroy a part of my heart. I'd like to be able to still care for them, but shield my emotions better.


Third, I want to find someone to whom I can give myself and who will give all of himself back to me. I want real equality in such a relationship so that it became me with true love and a happy ending.


Fourth, I want to be able to let go of my insecurities. I want to tell one of my closest and most trusted friends everything about myself. I’d like no roadblocks, to have everything out in the open and completely unshielded. Doing so would lift a weight off my shoulders and free me of its burden. To quote one of my favorite songs, “Sincerely Yours” by the group Hit The Lights, “I wish I had the nerve to tell you that I'm a wreck, but what really did you expect.” I don't want to be afraid to let people know who I really am, and what I’m all about.


And finally, I would like to be completely content with all the items that I have obtained through my life’s journey with no regrets and completely and utterly contented with everything.
