10 things every man should experience before he dies.

There are things that every man needs to experience, they put hair on your chest, make you smile ear to ear and feel like seconds take hours. This is not about an unrealistic bucket list, this is about those simple moments in a man's life that remind you why you are alive.

1. Wrestle a large dog.
Dogs and men have a special connection,  it probably comes from the days in which we used to hunt together and deeply depended on our trust on each other to get a meal. Sadly not many men live like this anymore but that is no reason to let your best dog friend feel like he is on his own. Get down to his level, put him on a head lock and get ready for testosterone, laughter, sweat and drool. Your dog will love you that much more and you will feel closer to him than ever before.  Plus, you need to remind him who is boss.

2. Acomplish something that you were afraid to attempt.
Our dreams can both scare us and fascinate us. As a man you can not allow your insecurities to keep you from achieving the fantastic things God designed you for. Whether you start a blog with little knowledge of English grammar, or you go Kodiak hunting with a bowie knife, give it your all. Who knows? You could end up on the other side surprised at how good you are at what seemed impossible.

3. Make a baby laugh.
It sounds simple enough and few things make your heart so satisfied as knowing that the baby likes you.

4. Start a fire.
Especially if your girl is shivering next to you, this is going to make you feel like a hero and you will know that you have the skills to survive.

5. Shoot a gun.
All it takes to change someone's opinion about guns is to put one in their hands let them squeeze a couple of rounds down range. It's great therapy and bonding activity with friends and family.

6. Stick your neck on the line.
As men we find ourselves in tough situations  at times. We can defend ourselves and come out on top or we can do the selfless thing, stick our neck on the line and make sure the people around us stay safe. Whether you stand up for some one being oppressed or you take a blow for a friend, it is a good feeling to know that you layed your life down for a friend.

7. Hold your child.
I am not a father yet, but I have seen many. There is a look in their eyes and a warmth in their smile that I have not seen anywhere else. That is an experience I am eagerly waiting for.

8. Impress your girl
I am talking about blowing her mind, I am talking about making her think that you where finally able to read her mind. Whether cooking or creating the perfect date, you need to have the satisfaction of seeing her smile ear to ear and be elated at your accomplishment.

9.Teach a kid something new.
It's an awesome feeling to know that you have invested in the coming generation. There is and endless amount of information that will blow a child's mind away and better his life and believe me that kid will always be thankful that you took the time.

10.Visit a different culture.
Have you ever met a cajun? Have you ever had small talk with a new yorker in the subway?  Have you ever heard stories from a mayan while riding in a rickshaw through a jungle? No? Well, you should. This world is filled with incredible people with amazing stories. Take the time, get out of your comfort zones and experience a new culture.

Regardless of what you have or have not experienced the point is to live life to the fullest, experience everything this life has to offer and live a life that is worth following. Constantly seek for adventure and you will find yourself growing in wisdom happines and injuries, but hey, they are worth it.
