Why make bucket lists...

How do you make a grocery shopping list? ...simple, open your refrigerator and rake your brain !!

Wish preparing a life bucket list would be as simple... the problem with us mortals is that we dream a lot and if you are an South Asian male sadly you only dream...

The first idea of a bucket list crept up way back when I was doing my Graduation a Globe trotting Uncle at that time had suggested to visit the Alps and camp there ...now that was like wow! I will never return (another typical South Asian aspiration...never return from anywhere you go)

But as one had to finish graduation Alps were a distant dream so they went into the bucket list, the first of the many items. Graduating was boring ..oh let me emphasis utterly boring and no I will not revel my subject don't want my peer Botanist to sue me...

Then for the first time in 15 year of useless education pursue I started studying something I like Business Management and that was where the next item arrived, it was on a brief visit to Goa when a friend remarked - If you have not seen Ibiza you have not seen anything, and that got me hooked to it...but ibiza for an unemployed Management wannabe is only a bucket list item...

Life moved on and the bucket list grew at an alarming rate, YellowStone National park, Bungee jumping, Skydiving etc. etc.

20 years down the line and with 3 kids and not to forget loads of work, have a feeling bucket lists are meant to be made so that you can look at them and say ..One Day I will!
