A new Australian television show examines weird and wonderful things individuals aspire to experience before they die.  Many of these ideas involve adventure sports or pushing themselves mentally or physically to their perceived limits.  What about intangibles like experiencing true love, success and fulfillment? What do these options say to you? Do you have other ideas?

1) Make a pilgrimage. The destination might be a traditional one such as Jerusalem or Rome or Mecca. It might be a site of prehistoric rituals, like Stonehenge, Tibet or Machu Picchu.  Nature-lovers may head to the African savanna, Alaska, the Canadian Rockies, Victoria Falls, Amazonian rain forest or Antarctica.  Music-lovers may dream of Athens or Bayreuth. Find yourself.  Do what comes naturally. 

2) Feel like part of something bigger, something that touches your soul. The reward will be a precious, immeasurable moment, whether it's hearing the "Gloria" at St. Peter's or watching a penguin take its first step in the Southern Hemisphere. Explore those things that make you feel truly alive.  Dabble in creative pursuits or follow your spirit.  Where you choose to go and what you choose to do are guided by how you feel.

3) Eat a memorable meal. When the end comes for you, there is a distinct possibility that you will be in no position to enjoy your preferred foods.  Yet, if you plan ahead, you will not pass on wondering what certain things would taste like.  Where will this meal be served? Who would prepare it? Perhaps you desire to learn to prepare it yourself?  Go that extra mile and then some.
