When I got to college, I realized how much time I had spent looking to the future instead of living in the moment. After all, there is no time like the present, and I will never get this time back once it's gone. After having a particularly stressful week at school, I decided that I needed a new outlet for my feelings, and that I needed to start enjoying every day for what it is.
This concept came to my mind after I decided to make a finalized bucket list for myself. I had made one with a friend awhile ago, but things change and I decided it would be smarter to have my own, one I know that I can stick to. I was sitting with my suite mates and I was showing them what I had come up with, and a lot of them questioned the items of my list, and the sheer amount of items on my list. Some of these things cannot be accomplished in the immediate future, while some I could accomplish this afternoon if I wanted to. I decided to make this blog for the following reasons:
1) To document and hold myself accountable to the items on my bucket list
2) To share the stories behind why I want to do certain things on my bucket list
3) To discuss my real life goal, to live in the moment.
I have 99 items on my bucket list, and I decided that once I complete something on the list, I am allowed to add a new item, so that I will always have 99 things to complete on my bucket list. There is always something new that I can try, and I never want this to be something that just ends. I want to live my life with the idea that I can always learn something new and accomplish something great. That being said, I hope you join me in this journey I'm about to take, and I hope you get something from it too, whoever it is that's going to be reading this.
Until next time,
Bridget
