Death is something no one wants to talk about or even
think about; it’s avoided like the plague. Death may be a topic the vast
majority of the public tries to avoid, but the truth is we all only breathe for
so long. When this life is over no one will care what we wore, how our hair
looked or what car we drove. Our bodies will return into dust and all that will
live on are our accomplishments.
Before I die I want to go on a mission trip to Africa.
This is so important to me, because I want to live my life for God. I would
have no hope without God, so I want to give hope to others by teaching them
about God.
The second thing I want to do before I stop breathing is
to shoot a documentary on human trafficking. This subject has been close to my
heart ever since I did a dual credit research paper on human trafficking. I had
never seen children with no hope or soul before. Their eyes were not happy like
those of most children, their eyes were like a cold sea; these children were
drowning in the world of human trafficking.
I
really want to run a 100 mile race before I die. I want to push myself to not
only the physical limit but also the mental limit. Races are all about being
mentally tough and I want to go out there and see how tough I am; I love
running.
I want
to take a trip to Ireland. Traveling and seeing other parts of the world are
essential to becoming a well rounded person. Ireland has always been a place I
wanted to visit, because it seems so cozy and serene.
The last item on my bucket list is to adopt a child. For
as long as I can remember I’ve wanted to adopt a child. I feel so strongly
about this, because I want to give another child a chance and to let them know
that they are loved and special.
If this list is all I accomplish in my lifetime, then
I’ll be happy; because my life will have meant something. Life shouldn’t be
wasted on worrying about cars or what haircut we should get; our life should be
about helping those who need it the most. To change one person’s life is
enough, it means that because you lived someone else is better off.
