I recently read this post: Playing B-ball with Obama: 6 steps to crossing anything off your bucket list
… and thought about it …. What is on my ‘bucket list’? What is it I want to DO before I die?
and the very first thing that occurred to me, almost immediately, was I wanted to write a novel that was made into a movie and be able to have a small hand in the movie-making process.
Just once.
Oh, yea, I fully acknowledge that my what-I-want-to-do-before-I-die wish is absurdly pie-in-the-sky. Especially considering I have written 2 short stories in my life. No novels. And the stories that I wrote weren’t even that good.
BUT. I may be a late bloomer, but I’m not dead yet 
There’s still time for me to start. There’s still time for me to put in the work. I can still TRY.
It’s just a matter of knowing which direction I’m going.
My online workshop – Onward and Upward – begins in a couple weeks! Registration is still open and we’d love for you to join us…. We’ll be discussing, among other things, what we REALLY want to do with our lives and how to make that happen.
I keep attempting to write a Bucket List but they always tend to be short term goals – that can be achieved in a few weeks time or a few months time rather than out there ones.
I guess there’s things like be a parent or be a grandparent but I’ve kind of fulfilled the first one by being a Foster Parent (for almost a year!!! eep!)
Maybe I need to write the boring “Goals that can be achieved now” list and then a “goals to achieve one day before I die”
