#16: The Bucket List

Now there's a conversation starter...

However, I think that a bucket list is an incredibly personal thing, that you may not want to discuss.

There are a few things on my bucket list, that I'd be happy to discuss with people, such as the usuals; travel the world, learn to drive, and scuba dive. But, then there are the others, that you feel are better left kept closer to you.

This evening, me and Col decided to get a takeaway, and watch a film. Fish and chips were on the menu, along with The Bucket List, starring Morgan Freeman, and Jack Nicholson.

The two men discover that they are both terminally ill, and only have so long left to live. Shortly after the family orientated man, from a poor background (Freeman), and the rich, selfish character (Nicholson), are forced to share a hospital room, they become good friends, and decide to create a Bucket List between them, to complete before they die.

It's a very moving, and inspiring story, that gives you a different perspective on life.

My favourite kind of film!

This year, I'm going to write an even bigger bucket list, and work towards it day by day. You only live once, after all!

What would be on your bucket list?
