The Specifics

Here is a more specific list of things that I want to incorporate into my life regularly or accomplish, if God so wills:

  • Religion: prayer, remembering God, incorporating its teachings into my life (ie. gratitude, patience, truthfulness, etc), reading the Qur'an, reading books by monotheists, mosque, conversing with people about it.
  • Exercise: beginning with a daily 15 minute walk, biking, swimming (but first learn how to do swim), hiking, etc.
  • Learning: languages (ASL, Somali, French, Arabic, etc), skills (swimming, driving [get G2!], more recipes, etc), through reading (politics, international affairs, law, etc), and so on.
  • Obtain qualifications: academic degrees (Bachelor's, Master's, PhD), licenses (swimming or lifeguard license, G2 and G, etc), among other things.
  • Places to go (not for a vacation but for a purpose): Somalia (to learn language and history, experience, see family, etc), France (to learn language, experience), Mecca (for Hajj), and perhaps other places in Africa.
