I have one meme I am working on (I haven't forgotten you, Oza). But I also served myself with a meme, right in time for the new year:
List 15 things you want to do or want to achieve in the new year, even if they sound improbable or unlikely.
Try it, if you like, and let me know what you wrote. Here's what I came up with:
1. Attend the launch of a Space shuttle.
2. Fly to the UK, run across the countryside, and fly back home.
3. Meet at least one interesting person each day and learn something new each day
4. Write a book, or several, and give talks around the world to inspire others
5. Read more.
6. Make music.
7. Participate in something greater than myself.
8. Live boldly and authentically.
9. Sleep soundly at night and wake up energized and alert at 6 am.
10. Find a cool gig on a sunny campus in California next to the Pacific Ocean.
11. Dip my fingers in the Pacific Ocean.
12. Meditate.
13. Rest the mind and work the body.
14. Travel to Asia.
15. Make awesome memories.
A few weeks ago, I was served a meme by local Montreal blogger Oza Meilleur, who blogs at Oza Meilleur (the making of), but, unfortunately, I still have not started working through it.
While I was thinking about Oza's meme, I started toying with an idea for a new meme, which was partly inspired by a blog post I read on David Lee King's blog. King, who blogs at, er, at David Lee King, is a librarian, musician, writer, blogger, and videographer and seems like a very nice guy. He loves his job and shares his joy through his numerous social networks.
King's meme, or the one he had been served, has something to do with 99 things: Things you had done, things you want to do, and things you have not done and don't ever want to do.
I thought about it, and found myself focusing on things you want to do. That particular one seemed full of possibilities, it was hard to resist.
