The Moral Bucket List

Do you have a bucket list?  Have you crossed things off of that bucket list?  The items on our list are often big things:  to see the Eiffel Tower...to skydive...to run a marathon.  They are things that YOU will remember, but are those the only things you want others to remember about you?
