Yes, I finally made one. The difference is I made it as an accumulation of many bucket lists on the internet. The x-ed out lettering are ones I have already succeeded in doing in my life so far. The others are ones I plan to accomplish in my future. This blog will be about my life fulfilling my purpose through the epic bucket list. 250 Things. 1 Amazing life! I hope this will inspire you to reach beyond your grasps, because these sure will not be easy tasks to achieve before I die! Go out and be inspiring!
