This started out as a list of Impossibilities but turns out I am not as hopeless anymore and maybe like a certain Alice, I need to believe that impossible things can happen....if only I can believe in them enough...enough to achieve them. The numbers on the list do not signify their importance in my life, as each of these have meant as much to me as the other at some or most points in my life!

*This was the original post script that accompanied this list ---{*Might edit this List to add new things that crop up in my Head......But never take things off the List...Just maybe Strike them off to show completion of some sort....Some of the things will sort themselves in a yr or two and will be classified as Impossible for a lifetime....the rest...m giving a max. of 5 yrs to be classified permanently impossible!!!}
P.S. Well, I had established a few ground rules about the list but I guess I don't need any as long as I promise myself to edit this list only when I am in a calm contemplative mood and not add or take off or strike off anything on an impulse!
