Goal : 'See what's happening in your community'  
46 See what's happening in your community  
  Look around you, read the local newspapers and get involved with your community. There may be a club you could join where you can pick up an old hobby, or try something new; a music, chess, or amateur dramatics club for example.
There may be people in your own community that need help with the usual everyday things like shopping, cleaning, or just changing a light bulb. There may be people that never see another person from one day to the next who would appreciate a friendly face and a listening ear. Knowing you've helped someone is thanks enough.

47 See the northern lights  
  Imagine seeing a dark night sky illuminated with shimmering streaks of blue, red and green.
The 'Aurora Borealis', more commonly known as the northern lights, is a natural phenomenon created when charged particles from the sun collide with particles above the polar regions of the Earth. This collision emits visible light, varying in intensity depending on solar activity.
Northern lights are usually seen in an oval shaped zone around the North Pole. The lights have on rare occasions been seen from Northern Scotland, but for a greater chance of seeing this spectacular sight without going too far afield, head for Northern Norway.

Goal : 'Serenade someone'  
48 Serenade someone  
  Oh to be romanced! If you have someone in your life that you love, what better way to show them you care then to belt out their favourite love song.
Whether it be as you walk through the park (regardless of who's listening), at a karaoke evening or underneath the bedroom window, Romeo and Juliet style, just go for it.
We're not just suggesting this for the gentlemen out there, the ladies can try this too, just let it out, you may be surprised at the reaction. Remember your voice doesn't have to be the best, it's the heart and effort you put into it that counts.

49 Visit a museum  
  To go into the past and see how people lived gives us an insight into our own lives. To stand and reflect on how our forebears lived and worked gives us a better understanding of who we are and where we came from.
Looking at all the history and lives that have been and gone before your own can be humbling, but can also make you determined to live your life to the full.
To be able to look at artifacts that have been found and saved over the years is a gift that should be appreciated, and remember that if you feel old yourself, how do you think a mummy feels after a few thousand years? You will come out with a spring in your step!

Goal : 'Be happy'  
50 Be happy  
  This last suggestion is one to keep working at.
To many people being happy means lots of things. To be in the company of family and friends makes them happy, to see the look on a child's face or to wake to a beautiful morning gives them joy. Whatever makes you happy, make time to do it and do your best to brighten the lives of others. Enjoy the sights and sounds of our world. See good instead of bad in each other and remember the glass is half full, and not half empty.
