Over the years, I’ve heard a lot of people talk about their bucket list. I’ve been to a Chicago Cubs game at Wrigley Field and to the Mall of America in Minnesota, but I haven’t really put my “to-do list” into perspective yet. So, before I kick the bucket, there are five things I can think of that I would like to accomplish.
Number five on my list is learning American Sign Language (ASL). I know several people who use ASL to communicate, and I think it is amazing how hand gestures can say so much. Next, I would like to make a hole in one. Even though I’m not that great, I love to play golf. If I ever achieved this, I would probably never pick up a club again. Learning to do a backhand spring is third on my list. I am intrigued by all of the things gymnasts can do and how graceful they are. I would certainly be ecstatic if I could learn to do this move. Ever since I watched Soul Surfer, I have wanted to go surfing. I enjoy being in the water a lot, which is why it is number two. Finally, my most desired thing to do before I die is to go on a mission trip to another country. I want to help people who have no idea what it’s like to have clean water to drink and a good meal to eat. But most of all, I want to help spread the Word of God to those who have no knowledge of Him.
Although some of my things may seem far-fetched, it’s always good to have
dreams. Mark Hansen said, “By recording your dreams and goals on paper, you set in
motion the process of becoming the person you most want to be.” This list is just a beginning to the things I want to achieve.
