My Reverse Bucket List
HAPPY NEW YEAR!
There are many people with their elaborate bucket lists and/or New Year resolutions with goals they want to achieve in life. I typed my bucket list several years ago and it was quite discouraging to look at it recently. WHY? I realized I have had accomplished nearly nothing in the last several years. For the last few years, I was focusing on my pregnancy, having my daughter Coral & being a stay at home mom.
I decided I am going to do it rather opposite this time and focus on the extraordinary experiences I have already had!
I believe it is as important to celebrate the past because they shaped me into the person I am today. Cliche, I know!
While I was reliving the most wonderful experience I have had, I felt really appreciative for those experiences.
Please make sure you check out all other bloggers’ reverse bucket lists or 5 ways to make 2016 their years below!
