genuine question, what is the thing that makes you want to go through one more day? what makes you happy?
does it have to do with people?
does it have to do with hobbies?
does it have to do with a strong belief?

the filosophical shower thoughts go hard

My wife, my girlfriend, my cats, an incredibly strong fear of death, and good food. In approximately that order.

Honestly only ideas are keeping me alive.
Like, what new things can I experience in the future? What could I make?
And also learning, somewhat.

I am not sure on how that answer will change overtime

i will come back from the dead if i haven't made a complete mindfuck of an artpiece by the time i die

or just done something of value (in my own fucked up personal definition of the idea)

There's people from here I would like to talk to and to thank personally. People that have been quite memorable and have inspired me to become a better person and value myself more. People that have taught me the value of trusting someone, the value of caring for someone.

I want to tell them to the face: "I finally did it".

I want to finish with possibly my favorite (non comedic) quote from The Simpsons (Season 2 might not be the funniest but the drama moments were just spectacular):

Now, you lost someone special and it hurt. I'm lucky because I never lost anyone special to me. Everyone special to me is under this roof. It's true. Now, you'll have lots of special people in your life, Lisa. There's probably some place where they all get together and the food is real good, and guys like me are serving drinks. Oh, well, maybe I can't explain this, but I can fix your dollhouse for you.

uh

i guess causing a change in status quo isn't something i'll like to do much

Honestly it's just because dying is scary.

And I guess that I have stuff I wanna do and it'd be sad if I died without at least giving these things a shot.

wife and girlfriend? as in multiple people? as in you have a wife AND a girlfriend (who are both different people) at the same time?

I'm narcissistic enough to believe things will truly get better if I just continue to do what I believe in.

There's just no point avoiding life.
Aireunaeus
That's a quite deep question

Well my reason to keep living is to acomplish the stuff i havent done yet. Who knows what happens after death. Maybe nothing happens, you get reincarnated. I would just enjoy life as it is.

Because I am happy.

Yes, they're two separate people.

You are probably the rarest person on the entire OT!, for several different reasons lol.

A brighter future in sight, but not just dream about it, i do everything in my hands to achieve it everyday i am learning new things, studying, knowing people, etc. That is what keeps me in movement and it was pretty hard to have this mindset tbh.

Although this is true, I thought this answer was a bit superficial, so I decided to think a little more about it:

I live because I want to live, and I want to live because I want to want to live, and I want to want to live because I'm afraid of death, and I'm also afraid of stopping being afraid of death, and I (we?) probably have this fear because of biology or something like that, since if humans were not adapted to want to continue with their lives, the law of natural selection would filter them out.

But this doesn't matter much, now I'm going to go back to what I was doing, and find cool bugs in bbcode. /j

because I keep putting water and food into my mouth
family, friends, and art, mostly
Achromalia
everything people see, everything people make, everything people feel

i love watching people, and i love watching them create and cultivate, but i also love when they're at ease and lounging how they like. i love when people help each other and care for each other, and preferably i like to see a little bit of a counterpoint to the cynicism that exists at the moment, but sometimes cynicism itself is interesting and meaningfully reflective of humanity too

i want to consume everything that humanity is, sometimes, i guess
i'm mostly just a voyeur lol

but i do hope to someday participate in a little bit of that creation and nurturance.
