  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

This is what I said a few years ago: "I want to get married and to have a healthy and long lasting marriage, to have and raise children,to see those children be successful and have families of their own, to enjoy times with our extended families (parents, siblings, other relatives) and not take them for granted, to help others either via my career or volunteering or any other way that I can, to have a few good dogs and lots of friends, and to always be getting closer to God. (Obviously in no particular order since the last is the most important of all.)"

I want to hike the Appalachian, Pacific Crest, Continental Divide and American Discovery trails from one end to the other. I'd also like to go to Tierra Del Fuego. And I'd like to go to Great Britain and hike all over there for like 6 months. Obviously, I need to win the lottery first and since there is no lottery in AK, I'll just keep dreaming dreams of backpacking all these places.

What's your bucket list?


It can be long...short...serious or silly. It's gravy baby!

Meeting you is at the top of my bucket list...just sayin' soul sista!

Also:

Go on a mission trip

Achieve world peace (or at least peace with my ex)

Complete my college degree (starting this summer!!)

Live long enough to see my great grandchildren

Go back to Europe

Go to Ireland

Maybe even Greece :eheh:

Take a cake decorating class, a sewing class, and a pottery class. If I am successful, I could display a cake I decorated on my own cake plate I molded/fired and sew little goodie bags for all the party guests at my kids parties. (Yes, I am THAT ridiculously homemaker-wanna-be-geeky.

Be able to wear a bikini again - without fear of being cited/fined for indecent exposure (some day! :unbelievable:)

Honestly?

I just want to travel, to see the world, explore creation. Nowhere in particular, I just want to see as much as possible before death comes. Meet people, find out about their lives, create memories and capture snapshots of life, perhaps silly little snapshots like a bowl of food or a piece of moss, but shots that mean something.

Funny, but even at age 52 my list is short. Finish my degrees by end of summer, then find full-time work again. Then, continue taking one class a quarter just for fun. When I'm 60 I can take classes for free (yeah).

I think I'm addicted to studying something.

Aside from that, I'm playing it by ear. ;)

I have a really long bucket list. I struggle with it sometimes because theres so much I want to do, but alot of it involves money, or things that are uncertain, like getting married or having certain contacts. Like I can't have kids if I don't get married, and I probably won't be able to adopt because I have bipolar.

I've tried thinking about what I would do with my life if I had to narrow my bucketlist down, if I never have much money of my own, and don't get another chance to travel.

I want to be happy and healthy. I want a incredible relationship with God. I want to get married to someone who surprises me everyday and goes on crazy adventures with me, and I want to raise strong, smart, caring and godly kids who succeed at everything they do and learn from their mistakes. I want to be heavily involved with my church and bring lots of people to Heaven with me. I want to see my whole family become Christians, my mum, dad, cousins, sisters, uncles and uncles, grandparents etc. I want to have lots of bbqs with friends and family, to go to cellgroup every week where we talk and laugh and I want to spend lots of time on the beach. I want to have lots of friends. I want to do well in my career and change lives. Anything else is a bonus I suppose.
