50 Things to Look Forward To: A Bucket List for Life!
That will keep you from looking back
I am one of those people who enjoys to “live in the moment.” I don’t put much thought into the future because it could change at the drop of a hat, and I don’t like to think about the past because what’s done is done. With that being said, I do like to think of all of the things I have to look forward to in life as I grow up just because it keeps me motivated. There are so many opportunities for growth at 19 I haven't quite gotten to experience yet, and there are so many adventures awaiting me as my life progresses. These are just a few of the millions of things that many people have to look forward to in life.
