My Bucket List

April 6, 2013 by originalcyn Leave a Comment

my_bucket_list

According to the Urban Dictionary, a Bucket List is a list of things to do before you die. It comes from the term “kicked the bucket”.

In 2007 I saw a movie called the Bucket List starring Jack Nicholson and Morgan Freeman. It told the story of two terminally-ill patients, one a blue-collar family man and one a shrewd business man, who went on an adventure fulfilling a bucket list. This list was about doing, seeing and experiencing life before they died. Their list contained witnessing a miracle, skydiving, seeing the Great Wall of China and driving a sports car.

Shortly after seeing the movie I started creating my own bucket list of things I wanted to accomplish, see, do or experience before I die. On the list are items like:

  • See the Taj Mahal, Aurora Borealis and Grand Canyon (there are many more locations on the list)
  • Stand in my family’s town of origin (at least the one attached to our name sake)
  • Swim with dolphins
  • Watch wild horses run
  • Get over my fear of snakes
  • Inspire and motivate others

Since then I have added a few other such as learn to bell dance, become a public speaker, and write a book (or two). It seems that my list grows everyday as I continue to learn about new things and places.

I have also started to realize that even as my list grows so does the number of amazing and breath-taking things I have already done. These include:

  • Walking on Henry VIII grave (During my trip to Europe with Granny, my dad’s mom, after I graduated college)
  • Standing in Stonehenge (During my trip to Europe with Granny after I graduated college)
  • Watching a North Atlantic Right Whale breach out of the water (During a family trip to Cape Cod/Provincetown)
  • Learning where my family’s surname,  Moricz de Tecso, came from (Meeting my Hungarian family and hearing the historical stories.)

These are a few items I have already crossed off. My goal with this blog site is to share my adventures in hopes of inspiring others to live their lives to the fullest.
