What would you like to accomplish before you pass away?

I would like to make most of my dreams come true.

Olá Hericles, está tudo bem ai?

Well, I've heard it said that every man should do THREE things before he dies:

1. Plant a tree

2. Have a child

3. Write a book

I planted a tree from a maple key (seed) as a child growing up in Canada and it grew to be 15 m tall. I've got 5 sons and daughters, 4 of whom are now adults and my youngest son just turned 5 years old. Believe it or not I have also written 11 books (textbooks to teach English as a foreign language). So, I guess I've got all my bases covered. Not that I'm planning to check-out anytime soon. LOL

"Plant a three in '73" was the message we all got from school.
That in mind, the school had all the kids digging holes and we bunged trees into them.
The new canteen changed that some years later when a ruddy great bulldozer dug them up.

I know of one child but you forgot to mention seeing it born. That is a must.
There may be others but I can't be sure either way.
I have little interest in writing a book but I do write a demi blog with photos - Does that count?

what everybody didn't realise is that once you accomplish what you wanted it becomes meaningless when you kick the bucket.

unite whole world under one religion and one god that is MOTHER NATURE

If you have children they become meaningless when you die?

I would oppose that as much as humanly possible.

Children are the future.

I hope to accomplish financial security for my family. I would also like to spend quality time with them before I die.

Thanks for the feedbacks.

The world is a fast pace place and it's not likely to slow down, there are many challenges to bring up children : you are going  to word twice as hard to cope with it: at home and at work. The same with time management. the day has 24h so you have to split time for work, chores, rest, children and time for yourself.
good luck

( sorry for being off topic but they have to know the reality)

" Primadonna high school"  or " primadonna guesthouse" or ... whatever you get the idea.

I already invented a time machine and changed everything.  What you now know isn't the way it originally happened.

What originally haPPenedd? Who cares? I don't want to run with the Dinosaurs. That's the Past.
What about the party and the food. Celebrations. It is good to be ALIVE NOW.

The party's at your place.  Make sure you have lots of free food for the rest of us.
