5 things request

Hi readers... I don't know how many of you are out there exactly, but I'd like to get to know you if I don't already.

A few months ago I started collecting and posting from friends a collection of 5 things they'd like to do before they die.


So with the intent to expand our horizons a little bit, if you're reading this and would like to send me your 5 things, I'd be thrilled to hear them. Once or twice I week I will be posting a new collection of 5 things from one of you and we can all be inspired to add new things to our own lists.

If you'd like to share your 5 things, send them to me in an email at saraannhaws@gmail.com... Also if you wouldn't mind telling me how you stumbled across this blog, I'd be really interested to learn.

Cheers!

Here are the 5 things that Michelle wants to accomplish in this lifetime:

Explore all 7 continents
Marry in the temple and raise a righteous family
Speak 3 foreign languages fluently
Do something every day to draw closer to Christ
Be the kind of old woman that makes young women say, "I want to be like her when I'm old."

... Have I ever mentioned that Michelle is descended from pirates? And that her family TOTALLY celebrates "talk like a pirate" day? And that she has the coolest last name ever? Oh I did? Well good.

Kathryn's 5 Things

Kathryn is a friend of mine and an interior designer from NYC who currently resides in SLC.

3. I want to be great at gift giving, always remember peoples birthdays, and always send thank you cards. I want to be so good at it that I am known for it.

4. I want to own a store with my bestie, one that sells furniture, accessories, and paper goods. and I want my other bestie to have a bakery next door.

5. I want to live on a ranch somewhere in the West, with horses and chickens and dogs, and I want to wander around my ranch in green wellies and sing in the morning when the sun comes up.

Joseph's 5 things

"1)      To Fall In Love With Someone Who Loves Me Just As Much As I Love Her.

2)      Solve One Worldwide Problem, However Big Or Small.

3)      Write A Widely Published Work of Fiction.

4)      Prove To The World That You Can Indeed Buy Happiness.

5)      To Live To Have The Opportunity To Make A Difference In My Grandchildren’s Lives."

If anyone can do those, it's Joseph.

 

 

*Sidenote: 


Joseph is the one who taught me my favorite mantra... 

Go big or go home. 

He is larger than life. An endless supply of fun, fascinating and sometimes infuriating contradictions. He sort of defies description. I hope you get to meet him someday.

Do you know anyone who seems to defy the boundaries that everyone else follows? Not out of rebellion, but out of sheer determination and charisma?

I like to color inside the lines too much to be THAT person, but I sure admire people who can pull it off. 

This is one of the reasons that I love IKF... When I remind him that we should color inside the lines, he says, "What lines?"

Big or small... significant or simple... and I will be posting their responses periodically on my blog.

In the spirit of reciprocity I here are my 5 things:

1. Speak in front of a large audience and win them over
2. Go to Venice for Redentore
3. See my kids grown up, happy and healthy
4. Make a creme brulee
5. Live my life so that my future husband will love me more when we're 80 than he does now
