The Life List- Day 9

Several months have passed between day 7 and 9. Let's just call that Day 8 of living, loving, and losing. 

Annnnnnd now we're back. So...I'm not really into bucket lists. Who likes to think about kicking a bucket anyway? As my grandmother lays intubated with doctors in a race against the clock and a tango with fate- I figured it'd be a great time for me to reflect on the precious gift of life. We never know how life will twist and turn, but there are a few things I know for sure. I want to live a bold, free, and authentic life. Outside of the day-to-day tasks, here are a few things I'd like to do in my season on Earth.
