Could be outstanding, could be something you've already completed.

I like to break my goals down into a sort of ladder with the eventual goal at the top, but smaller achievements on the way. So to that end my bucket list includes such gems as:

  • Go out for a meal alone
  • Buy a fancy ice lolly without feeling guilty about it
  • Climb up the nearby hill without stopping for a break
  • Reach out to various old friends for a catchup
  • Finish reading the whole Discworld book series (I never did read the last one, iykyk)

"Make it to 40th birthday" is also on my list so I can relate. We can do this!

37 and non-conforming here. A good support network is worth its weight in gold!

36 ans and stabbed 2years ago. LGBT "community" IS a joke. Trans women are alone.

I can’t even imagine what other folks go through. I’m a white, straight, married, male, and I honestly have it tough. It pains me to know that, in the grand scheme of things, I have it easy.

Can I ask why that is the case? I guess I hadn't heard that it was so difficult before

Stress levels effecting health and targeted violence are what I assume theyre talking about
