So I just scratched off another item on my bucket list! I went a saw Wicked the Broadway Musical! This has been something that I have wanted to do for a very long time! Hence the reason that it is on my bucket list. Or rather, was on my bucket list. Now this isn't a review of the play itself, so if you are looking for my thoughts, there is no need to proceed. Wicked is something that almost everyone knows what it is about and at least one song. So it was good to see it so now I can say that I saw it. So some people say that is the purpose of a bucket list. So that you can say this is my life and this is what I have seen. But it is more than that. It is something that shows your values as a person, your adventures in life, and even some of your fears. It is something that should show your heart and soul. For this to be possible, our bucket lists cannot be tangible. They are objects that are constantly changing depending on where we are in life.
Growing up, my bucket list basically contained places in the world I wanted to visit. Uluru Rock, the Notre Dame, Angkor Wat, the Great Wall, Yosemite, Antarctica, Lake Baikal, the Red Square... You get the idea. But now that I am a little bit older, I realize that a bucket list should be more than that. I have since added things like try and be a better person every day, finding beauty in everyday things, learning new things even though I am done with school. Things that aren't tangible, things that are felt instead.
So take a moment to look at your bucket list and find new things to add. Things that will help you grow as a person, things that no one else knows you are doing. Find some way to grow into a better you through your bucket list. Include your dreams and your fears. Dreams are what make the world go round. Without dreams, there would be no future, no tomorrow.

DREAM that you can achieve something, BELIEVE that you can do it, DARE to do it, and finally, DO it!
