Bucket Lists

I'm going to keep up with what on my bucket lists I have/will accomplish below.

I went through a situation where I realized my life was not turning out how I wanted. I realized that I was a pushover for many people. And a person who is who is still a friend of mine, but at one time was a little more than showed me this.

I went on my own, I don't regret at all. I have never been happier in my life. I don't answer to many people now. Notice I said people, for the Lord tells me things I need to do. Quite honestly, I have been extra blessed because I am happy and I tell the devil to get behind me. I want to end up at the throne of God battered and bruised and weak saying "I used everything you gave me."

So I was inspired by a friend of mine, on her Pinterest - Courtney's Bucket List, I was in awe of things she wanted to do. Now I have traveled all over the world. Been on 5 of the 7 continents but its the little things that I've never experienced and now I'm realizing how the small things make the true memories. I made a bucket list for the summer and I have loved experiencing the things so far and it's invigorating to realize that you just did something that you had never experienced. I have learned so much about myself.

I feel that breaking the bucket lists give me a time sense to do them. I think seasonal will work well for me. I encourage to write down what you want to do in life. Though I might do a Big Picture Bucket List with normal bucket list thing but my smaller ones will be kept to a seasonal theme. Hope you enjoy.

Chris and I are known for our bucket list but we have forever now and that isn't long enough for us.

Today has been amazing for us. It felt amazing being his wife because I still blush at the sight of him in a tank top or even shirtless. Yes, yes it's been two years of dating and countless trips and nights where I have seen him shirtless. But he is ripped and the world knows it there for I will continue to blush. Anyhow we are going take over the world one goal at a time together. And this is just Part 1. As we grow and complete this list I am sure Part 2 will surface.
