Day 05 → Something you hope to do in your life.
I don’t have a bucket list. Part of me hesitates making one because how disappointing it would be to come close to the end of my life and see how little I have crossed off of it. At least that is what I imagine would happen were I to make a bucket list because it would likely be a very long and detailed list. No, I am pretty much planning to take my adventures as they come because my life can be pretty adventurous just living in this circus of mine.
Bu-ut…there is one thing I do want to do sometime soon.
Bill and I both have been wanting to do it for a very long time. Bill and I have even planned for it a couple of times. The first time we talked about it as part of a celebration of our twentieth wedding anniversary but then we focused instead on completing our family adopting Daniel and realizing another dream, the building and purchase of our very first home. Then we had the financial means to accomplish our dream just in time for our twenty-fifth wedding anniversary. We talked of our plans just as we discovered that we were soon to be come grandparents for the first time. Go to England when we were about to meet the greatest grand-baby ever to be born that year? Our dream, we rationalized, has been there for centuries and will likely still be there in a few more years.
Someday, someday soon before we are too old to really enjoy ourselves, we will come to Scarborough and visit our castle.
