The reason I choose to continue living is that I only have one chance to inhabit a mortal body in this world so I’d like to see it through for as long as I can. What’s yours?
Silksong
because dying is painful!!!
I’m really enjoying my life and I’m happy. I wouldn’t trade that for anything!
sunk cost fallacy. i’m in too deep to stop now. really, this is how i manage everything. once the smallest amount of time has been invested in something there’s no stopping til i see it through.
have you tried gambling? you might really enjoy that one
noooo, never. because i know myself i have a hard rule to never ever try gambling, casinos, and the like.
Honestly? Not sure. More afraid of missing out than anything else.
what else ya gonna do? passes the time.
My niece is starting to get old enough that, even if I leave a note asking them to tell her I was in an accident, I think she’d catch on. We’re not super close but I’m not sure what it does to a kid’s psych to learn people in their family can do that. I have VERY strong feelings about people who refuse to protect children, so unfortunately I’m here for a while.
Death scares the shit out of me.
Plus, I’ll get there eventually. No point in rushing.
I’ll get there eventually
Wow, the hubris is real. Ever heard of impostor’s syndrome? Because you obviously don’t suffer from it
Living is fun and I have people I love and care for deeply, that make me see the world through alternative angles that deepen my appreciation.

My boss would be really mad if I tried to not come in for that long
Because I know how much my funeral would suck
I thought I’d just travel a bit and do nothing until I’m broke before I end it, but life was great then. Now I’ve sacrificed 10+ years trying to save some money for who knows what. Got to make it worth the sacrifice before I go
Life is fucking amazing. The intricacy of it all is just so incredibly deep, a neverending pool of knowledge and mysteries to explore. And then there also is a thing called creativity. The absolutely stunning, interesting, weird, crazy, lovely stuff around us is an endless adventure. And on top of that there is love, being able to care and support others is deeply rewarding.
I absolutely do not fear death and do not care about pain. I really just enjoy it here, so i avoid it as best i can. I eat healthy, active lifestyle, taking care of my psychological needs. I hope to live for another 100 years!
Because my mom wants me to.
