Yes.
Nothing long, nothing eloquent tonight, but if you get a chance to watch The Buried Life ever, do it. You won't regret it. It's rare that I would encourage someone to watch TV, but trust me, this show almost makes up for the over the top hedonism and indulgence of most other reality shows single handedly. For everything these four boys do on their list, they help someone else cross something off their own list . . .

Now, I'm not gonna endorse everything on here, and obviously my own list would look different. But I love the spirit behind it, of not settling, but CHASING dreams and inspiring people along the way.
And I want to do this. Not in a "I'm bored and sitting on my couch with nothing to do so this sounds good " kind of way. But f'real. Maybe not the whole bucket list idea, but a cross country road trip that positively affects the people I meet?
I'm in.
Course, here's where I'm at now - there's no way I can afford to do that. So, let's shrink it down a little and let me live recklessly in pursuit of one of my huge goals in life - to make a new person smile each day. Not only is this pushing me to interact with people, but to interact with them POSITIVELY and to be a blessing to them . . . try it, wherever you are. Make a new person smile every day. Just one person. And a different one each day. Even people in the smallest towns are near enough people to make it to the end of the year without overlap.
