“So little done, so much to do.”

“So little done, so much to do.”- Cecil Rhodes
You won’t live forever. Neither will I. Given what could be a limited life, not all of the things that we want to achieve could be materially possible.
We’ll all die. That shouldn’t even make anybody horrified. While we cannot make reality out of all our dreams, there are things we can do.
After some time thinking and reading other people’s lists, I share with you ten things I want to do before I die:

Send a message in a bottle. You’ve been used too SMS and email for too long. Give it a break.
Watch a lunar eclipse. You don’t have hundreds of years to witness the phenomenon. It happens , well, once in a blue moon.

Sleep under the stars. It’s always stellar.
Do charity, unknown. Nothing material compares to one good, secret deed that does not wait for reward.
Write a poem. Let as many people as possible read it. You’ll be surprised.

Run a marathon. Life is a race. You can win it.
Find yourself an enemy. So someone would remember you when you depart, of course not for your good deeds.

Forgive someone. Well, a clear conscience is as soft as a pillow. You’ll need that in your eternal slumber.
Fall deeply in love -- helplessly and unconditionally. That’s what we are made for. If you believe in destiny, then find your one, true soulmate, and finally
Be happy. You deserve it.
