Getting Older

Where does the time go. It’s so funny how we want to slow down time so we can enjoy life more, yet when we have something exciting coming up…We want time to go by faster so the event gets here sooner. We can’t help it.

I have a cruise coming up, which is on my buket list, in February. I want time to go by fast so I can be on the cruise. Yet, I need more time to get my body into the shape I want for the cruise. What a Merry-Go-Round we are on when it comes to time.

Speaking of bucket lists…Why do we make a bucket list when we get older in hopes to fullfil the list prior to passing away? I know I started my busket list when I got sick awhile back. Although my health is pretty darn great now, I wish I would have started my bucket list during highschool.

Some people say…”Live in the moment”, heck, I’ve said that throughout my life. Now that I am older I believe in living in the moment still, but I wish I would have planned events that I couldn’t afford at the time, and planned them as soon as I could in the future the moment I had the money saved.

See through the eyes of elders and listen to what they wish they would have done earlier in life. Learn from them and make your life incredibly memorable. It doesn’t take a ton of money to have a fulfilling life of memories and adventures. Learn how to save at a younger age so you can enjoy the things you want to do. Make that list of reasonable and obtainable things you want to do now. Start now ;).

What would you like to do that will make amazing memories? It’s never to late and there is never a certain age to start enjoying your bucket list.

  1. Thank you Alexis. Wise words indeed. As we get older, we have a tendency to wish we had done many things that we either do not have the physical, financial or emotional ability to do. I highly encourage the younger generations to live life to the fullest in your youth. Don’t wait. Enjoy life, make memories. But a very important thing the younger folks should do is pay attention to the older generation. Listen to them. I mean really listen and learn. Don’t ignore older folks. See them, hear them. They have so much to impart about life. They are wrinkled old books full of wisdom.
