I had breakfast with Desmond on Saturday. Yes, I can sneak out, provided it's not a crowded place and not for too long. He showed me his Bucket List. It is a wish list of things that he would want to do before he "kicks the bucket". It was a good list.
I came back thinking I should write my own list as well. I think everyone should.
And so for 2 whole days, I've been thinking. The list is still empty. I must work at it.

i totally agree, ever since my father died of cancer i followed only one principle: live my life so that i can go anyway!
my father had a huge list of things that he wanted to do, but never did do because all of a sudden he became ill, and then had one year left to live, and most of that was more of a living hell then life. still he was clinging on to the last second, because there was so much unfinished business, so many things he wanted to do, so many things he wanted to say, so many things he wanted to see.
so i make a point of doing, and seeing things, and saying things, like i love my friends, they mean the world to me, and without my friends i would be next to nothing. i spend money on travelling, because if i want to see places i go and see them, because tomorrow might be too late. i try to spend as much time as i can with my friends, because tomorrow either them or me might not be around. i love life, but i live it in a way that allows me to let go any time ***
