Create a Life List!

Recently, I came across this site SuperViva.com. It’s a place where people can compile their Life Lists. You might have heard of the concept before, making a list of things you want to do before you die. Usually it’s 100 things to do. Why 100? I don’t know, I guess it’s a good clean number that’s easy to remember. Anyway! I haven’t joined the site but it certainly got me thinking about the whole concept in general. Here is a small list I’ve started for my own Life List:

Sing at a Karaoke Bar
Ride on a Motorcycle
Write a YA Novel
Attend a Protest on an Issue I Feel Passionate About
Pick Fruit Off a Tree for An Afternoon

Journal Exercise:
Jot down a few ideas for your Life List. What do you want to accomplish that’s interesting, different or spectacular?

Feel free to post a comment below and list a few for others to read!
