i like this list!
Thanks very much for sharing!
Thanks so much for sharing this list. I have shared it with some friends.
Thank you :)
Brought tears to my eyes.
Very inspiring.
I have regretted drying laundry on a clothesline. There was a bee hiding in that sheet…
I love this list! Thank you so much for posting it. It really gives me hope.
beautiful list! The ideal is to stamp it and to keep near us at work and at home so that we can have a look at it anytime we want! :-))
Love the list..I would add next to the learn another language…experience another culture..through travel/experience…ride the bus…meet people that are not in your neighborhood.
And give something away to a person who admires it.
I really needed to read this today. Thank you very much for posting it. :)
I’d add to #77 – Don’t Tweet in anger either
I’d also add – pay for a strangers bus fare or laundry.
Great list!
Wow, it really is the little things (and the hard things).
Thanks for the list, what a great reminder of what is important in our lives.
However, #82 “Bring your lunch to work.” I have regretted, on free company BBQ day, my egg salad went rotten.
Nice list. I HAVE actually regretted a few things out of the 100 (not many), but I think the intention is right.
I love this list and will apply it in my life daily.
* smile at a stranger
* go on vacation (take much needed rest)
I think that when we strive to do what’s right, we end up with lets regrets in life. When we get that little voice inside that says that we should do what we’re doing, we should pay attention to it. This voice aids in helping us to alleviate regret.
Such a great list! Thanks for sharing!
what a lovely list! i like greg t.’s addenda, too. i will add:
*grow a garden–even if it’s in one flowerpot
*have afternoon tea
*cuddle a pet
For your next 100
– get out of debt
– hug your spouse
– Help a single mom with yard or car maintenance
– anonomously pay for a soldier’s meal at a restaurant
– give a huge tip (> 50%) to a deserving waiter or waitress
Great idea to help a single mom with yard or car maintenance, but I would add single women who are not moms, especially if they’re middle-aged or older. As a 5’1 47 year old woman, there are things I’m not strong enough to do, and my father, bless his heart, can’t help me any more. Unmarried, childless women don’t necessarily have as many social contacts as women with children.
I LOVE your idea of pay for a soldier’s meal at a restaurant.
