What's on your list?

We will die. It is the only promise we have in life.  But how come we don’t let this concept fully sink in? Why do we take everyday for granted when we KNOW we shouldn’t? Why do so many people die without living their lives to the fullest? We study  subjects which we don’t care for. Work at dead end jobs that nourish the corporate world but do nothing for our souls.  Live in broken homes that eventually shatter our dreams. Stay committed in unhappy relationships only to become immune to being mistreated. Then, we eat, sleep, and wake up to  do the same shit the next day. But let me tell you this, one day, when you’re on your death bed…the only thought that will be going through your heads is: " Why did I take so many of my healthy days for granted? Why didn’t I utilize this luxery known as LIFE and do more...way more."

Don’t be one of those people, please. Do something. Make changes. Stay curious. Don’t settle for less. Don’t settle period. Revolutionize. Explore. Set goals and enjoy. 

Some people think  that making a list of things to do before you die is depressing. I find it inspiring. Here is my bucket-list:
