Bucket List A Great Movie

Just saw The Bucket List and loved the movie. It has a great message and very well done. One of my favorite lines was; He died with a smile on his face and with his heart open. One of the major inspirations from the movie is to find you joy.

If you want to laugh until you cry this movie is a must see. When you leave you will be thinking about your own buket list. These are a few that I went away with.

1. I want to tell the ones I love just how much I love them each chance I get. You never know when you will kick the bucket so make the most of each moment.
2. I want to laugh at myself each day and remember to lighten up. Laughter is the best medicine. I want to give it to myself and pass it on to others as often as possible.
3. I want to watch a sunrise and a sunset at least once a month and take in all the beauty my eyes can feast on. Beauty is all around us but our eyes must be open to take it in. I want to take the blinders off and see the beauty each day.

Has anyone added to their bucket list or have you seen The Bucket List? Leave me your thoughts about the bucket list!Remember if you are looking to escape the cold check out our retreats!
