You Can Do It!
One of the readers to this site, a lovely Fit Over 50 lady by the name of Rhonda, has had a dream all her life to write a novel. Originally the goal was to write the “Great American Novel.” It was to be an astounding work of brilliance to rank up there with the greatest classics of all time.
Time and life got in the way quite a bit on the road to fame and fortune (where have we all heard that before).
Today, the desire for fame and fortune may be less compelling, but the desire to write a novel still burns strong in Rhonda’s heart.
As so, she has begun to write. This is not the first attempt, to be sure. But this time, there is something different. The wish for fame and fortune may flicker in her brain, but the real passion is to write the story she carries in her heart. If it is famous, if it is ever read by a publisher, if it has any literary merit whatsoever - none is this is of primary importance anymore. This is just one of the goals in Rhonda’s “bucket list” (more on that great movie starring Jack Nicholson and Morgan Freeman in a future posting).
What dream do you carry around in your bucket list? For those of you who haven’t seen the movie, the bucket list is basically a list of things you want to do before you “kick the bucket.”
For the Fit Over 50 crowd, I know the bucket list is weighing heavily. I want to hear about the bucket you carry.
