re: Things to do before you die.

There is a wonderful book called "the wish list" it lists about 6,000 things that you "wish to do" before you die.
Now the first one is a toughie "try everything once" OK fun but rather tough to accomplish, #2 is "win the noble peace prize".
There are some "easier" things like "snuggle under a goosedown quilt in winter" and "see my favorie childhood movie again".
It is a great read, to see how much you really have all ready done and how much more you COULD do!
