Making human connections. Whether you believe in one or many lives, there clearly is limited time in this existence. And if you like to chase long tails and eventualities, it's would seem there's no real purpose to existence other than what we do for each other. Thus, human connections are kind of important.

Or if you're a bit more selfish (or perhaps you suffer from oneism as someone currently rather famous does), then you might want to expand yourself as broadly as possible to really taste life. In this regard I can recommend dance. (I'm a nerd, and I totally learned to Salsa and Bachata, and it rocks.) Take a class, do what the other sheep do, and eventually become a dancer.

Or choose your favorite instrument that you like to hear. Buy one. Aim for the 30% mark in terms of price range for that type of instrument. Get some lessons. Practice. Join a meetup or otherwise find a group to join and play or jam with. It's a type of communication that most people never experience, and it's second only to sex. No wait, it may actually be better than sex in a perfect scenario.
