If you could do one thing...

Do you have one thing that you want to do before you die?  I mean you probably have thirty, but if you had to choose just one, is there one that stands out more then the rest?  For me there is one.  It's simple, not to complicated.  Something I know I can achieve, I just have to find the right time for it.  If there is one thing I could do it would be to take a road trip.  My dream would be across the country, but I would would settle for the state over or maybe two over.  I want it to be spur of the moment.  Leave on a Friday afternoon and not stop till night.  Find a place and stay there.  Wake up the next morning and try out the local cafe.  Look around.  Go shopping.  Try the cuisine.  Explore the parks there.  Something.  Anything.  Then drive another few hours, stop, and sleep.  Then again, explore, eat, shop.  Then on Sunday afternoon drive home.  Like I said it doesn't need to be anything big.  I will settle for that.  My dream is to drive down a country road, with country music blaring, in good company, and put my feet out the window, just like they do in movies.  I am rather short, so my feet might not actually reach all the way out the window, but hey it's worth a shot.  So that is what I would do if I could.  I would do it now, or in a few months, or years.  Maybe over and over again.  That is my dream.  That is the one thing I want to happen to me.  I can start slow with a little road trip.  I hope to eventually do a cross-country trip.  One day.  One day it will happen.  So what is it that you want to do?  What is the one thing you dream of doing?  Do you have that in your mind?  Okay, so now what is stopping you from doing it?  Do not say money or time.  You can save little by little and time can always be made.  Those are excuses.  I do not take excuses.  So get up and do what you want.  Life is short.  Grab the bull by the horns and go for it.  Do what you want to do.  Cause one day, before you know it, it will be too late.  Grab some friends, a loved one, or a family member and go for it.  Do what you want and do it now!
