Have you done every thing you've always wanted to do?

Like really,I just can't understand people,never happy with what they've got.They call it ambition,well I call it greedyness :)

How very true Armorlife. Many of us would admit that there were things that they wanted to do but could not due to some compulsion or the other. Like I always wanted to be an astronomer or someone who was associated with Astronomy. Unfortunately, in India during those days(1980s) we did not have much knowledge about this and I did not know what path to pursue. So I finally had to give this thought up and then I wanted to join the Defense. I also had appeared and cleared the entrance tests and exams. But when the final call came in, my parents and family just said no and I had to abide by their decision because I am the eldest son of my family and have to think twice about what impact would my actions have on the others.

I have always wanted to take photography lessons/ Only that I need to save up to purchase an SLR camera so that I could really have lessons. Then I want to travel the world. If only money isn't much of a need, I would have done it a long time ago. Next would be enrolling myself to hip hop dance. I have always wanted to dance only that I am chubby now and my time hasn't allowed me yet. Maybe next year when I get a vacation leave. I will really enroll myself to one hip hop class and give them my moves. LOL Money and time has always been compromised so maybe one of the reason why I can't do my plans yet because of obligations. But maybe Time wouldn't be that selfish to deprived me from doing all the things that I want to. :D

About the only thing i ever wanted & didn't get was a happy marriage. Other than that i'm pretty happy w/what i have. I'm just sorry i don't have somone to share things with but i have been alone so long it doesn't really bother me anymore. I hope y'all get to do the things u wanted to.

Well this one will perhaps be a switch from most other responses. I have to say it is a no on wanting to do and be everything I wanted when I was younger. As a child growing up in the total foster care system. I dreamed big! I wanted to do and and be all. Well I have my lovely kids which I have raised as a single parent, so although I did not get the full sha bang of a family. I did and made the best with my circumstances. I raised them to be wonderful, great, educated, and respectful. I have struggled hard, I have worked harder, I have achieved and lost lost. The one thing missing that I have not been able to accomplish is happiness. Do not get me wrong I live with a wonderful boyfriend. I just find well here is the story, I this year lost a job, a career of 19 yrs, none of us got unemployment and even our last check. Now I am struggling to find a job for almost nine months and well am told I am over qualified. Lost my house of 18 yrs, knee deep in debt and 140k in college loans. So to answer your discussions I did not achieve all of my life triumphs easy I had to burn the midnight oil, and to loose all of it in a snap well shows I have never really attained my happiness. Although one day I will get back on my feet, maybe not fully will I ever achieve the happiness I set out to accomplish in my life. This area for me has me questioning for years.

I still want to have children and I haven't yet. My husband and I bought a new house recently and I'm hoping to have them after we get settled in. I'm sure that one will be easy to accomplish.

Have I done everything I've wanted to do? Not by a long shot. I wanted to publish a book (still hoping on that one), join the Peace Corp, learn sign language, learn other languages, learn how to play a musical instrument, travel to New York, Europe, New Zealand, Israel, see a Broadway show (well, I saw one on tour, but I mean see it on Broadway). Most of the things I just never got around to doing or just never had the opportunity. Don't have the money for travel. I do know a little sign language but could never find a class to learn it fluently. Never had the discipline to learn a musical instrument.

have i done everything on my bucket list? certainly not, what fun would that be? i would love to see Paris at some point and next year we are going to go to New York City for a weekend. I would love to go back to school and take writing or art classes. the main thing that prevents me from doing anything is money.

Oh myyy, lot of things i do really wanted to do, but those we're all drawn to the wind. I prevented of doing so because of my family. I am the sole breadwinner during my younger years. Just after I graduated high school, i started to work. Until now at my age, I was the one left to look And I believe that everything happens for a reason. But I'm not saying that I'm not happy. I'm happy though there are still some things I really wanted to do. Particularly to travel for leisure. But I'm still hoping time will come for me to do it.

I missed a lot of things when I was young: I wanted to play outside but my parents didn't me allow to do that; I wanted to learn to drive and ride a bike but I was afraid to do so because I was afraid to get accident; I wanted to play marbles,play cards, and others because my parents told me that is a form of wager and it is bad; I wanted to have girlfriend at my highschool but I couldn't because I was still young. How I wish I could do that and I hope it is not too late for me.

Of course, everybody have that. For me, I really want to finish my college and get a job. But I didnt do that. Since I already have kids and busy at home, I can't do what I want to do. And that's only 1 from 10 of my list.

Personally, I don't think that's possible because I keep on wanting to take on something new once I'm done with one task. I try to get around to doing the things that truly make me happy everyday, some are easy enough to accomplish within 24 hours and some take so much more time. When I was twelve, I had the opportunity to study in London for three weeks but I didn't go because my friends weren't coming, I really regret that now. If I go to London one of these days, I'm sure the experience wouldn't be the same as the experience I could have had when I was twelve. I think one of the factors that prevented me from doing certain things in the past that could have changed my life greatly is fear. I was so afraid of the possibility of failing that I wasn't driven enough by the equal possibility of succeeding.

I'm 24 years old, two years after graduation from university. The thing i wanna to do is to have my further education in London. It's my dream. I don't know whether i have chance in the following few years. But i really really wanna to do it as soon as possible.

All I ever wanted to become was a non-worrying type of guy,and I was born that way,so It's cool,I also want to be famous,but one at a time :)

My husband and I haven't talked much about things we want to do. We want to visit Texas that is one thing, but I am sure we will get around to doing that at some point in our life. We want to get our own place, and we're working on ways to do that. I still need to get a job and we need to talk to the friends we plan on going in with to get the place... I just have my permit, I was late getting it because of procrastiantion, non motivation among the fact that I had to talk to the DMV to get things straigthened out. Well now I have my permit and I just need to wait to get my license.

I'm 23, I have always wanted to go to Disneyland with my parents and my brother. Seriously, that is what I really wanted to do. I want to spend time with them in another country without anything to worry about. At the age of 23, we have never been to another country together ever. I have not been to another country at all. This may be a child thing for my age and my brother(19) but it's one dream somehow impossible to achieve right now. Because, we don't have that much money, my brother is still studying, my parents are too busy. This is just a simple thing, just simple dream. I still want it to happen and I'll never get tired to dream that it will come true someday, no matter what my age is.

I'm just 22 and getting over with my post-graduation. Quite a number of things I have done, many remain. Like marriage, kids, cars, travel the world, make money etc. I'm just starting in life.

Of course not. The things which I want all the way is to travel the world. But so far, so many place I have not travelled, and so little place I had gone. I am still young, I will go on to realize my dreaming all all life.

well, im 34 and i havent got much time to do what i wanted in life though im taking it one step at a time and cherishing every moment for the things that i've done that makes me happy

I've always wanted to star in a musical play. I was never given a chance to even try to audition or go for a workshop because I chose to prioritize my studies. It's perfectly fine, though. I love what I have become. I can still sing, anyway.
