Welcome to the wordsbykim.com Reason To Live Wall.
The aim of this wall is to give those who do have a reason to go on living a chance to share their reason with those who have none of their own. With your help we might be able to give suicidal people something to help them carry on. Maybe they can take your reason for living and use it as a reason to keep going themselves.
You do not need to be logged in to add a comment to this wall but, to prevent abuse and spam, your comment will not appear until it has been approved. This wall is for people who may be in a fragile state of mind so comments will be "cleaned up" if they contain language that may be offensive or links to questionable sites.
Every day there are thousands of people all over the world who can't think of a single good reason to go on living. Each human being is unique, one of a kind, totally irreplaceable and suicide is a dreadful waste of human potential. Help is available. The suicidal person just needs to live long enough to find it but that can be hard to do when you feel nobody cares and there is no hope.
If you are suicidal, read the wall, know it was created to give you encouragement, a bit of hope or the incentive you need to keep trying. Know that every person who added their own reason to live here was thinking of you and added it in the hope it would help you go on in the face of your despair and exhaustion.
Know that people DO care, you DO matter, you CAN be helped and call your doctor, a counsellor or your local suicide help line.

I wish I had to weakness to kill myself.....or is it the fact.....that my strengh to live is ..is more than wanting to die. I also know that life
always changes. It never stays the same. I look back on my life and think yes ! I have had quite a full life. So now I am older (old) 63,
I do have an illness that affects my health....but I just get on with it. I look at people whom I have known who have committed suicide,
and thought they have got out of the pain....but never really seen what could have happened if they had lived.. I do not mean the people
who have sadly been addicted to drink or drugs, thats their life ! But even for them there is a choice if they get the strengh to change...Prayer
can work.

I do not believe in God, and thus do not believe in Hell. I am not afraid to die because I may go to Hell. That is not my fear. The truth is, one who does not believe in an afterlife has much more to fear than anyone religious, whether they are destined to go to Heaven or Hell, because one who does not share such supernatural beliefs has to accept, to themselves, that when they die, all that awaits them is nothingness. I fear nothingness.

It is amazing what one can find, when one types in the query: show me a reason to live. I read your posts, and I know that I am not alone. I suspect that I am older than you, and I am currently under the care of a psychiatrist who thinks that all emotional pain can be cured by Cymbalta.
I could relate to the poster, about the only reason to live was to protect her dogs. I feel the same, yet I have a husband, 2 children who are happily married, and 3 grandchildren.
But, I am haunted by how one small mistake derailed the path of my life, and I find myself here at the end, never knowing who I was meant to be. I have never lived alone. I have never been totally responsible for myself.
On the surface, I have nothing to complain about. But, I want, with every fiber of my being to turn the clock back to June of 1969, and never date my ex-husband. I knew instinctively that he wasn't right for me, but when I tried to end it - he said that he would kill himself if I broke up with him. And, so, I felt trapped, responsible, and I stayed. I put him through dental school, shared his Navy career, had 2 beautiful children, did lots of volunteer work, yet never lived. Today, we all know, that if someone says that, get them help. In those days, you did not tell anyone. Yet, maybe if I had, my mother would have rescued me, andn my life would have taken the path it was meant to have. Anyway, today, my good reason to live is a 10 yearl old Yorkie, named Bear, who is dying of heart failure. May God bless and care for you all.

My reasons to live started out with my dying would be an insult to all those people much worse off than me in poverty...
it seemed a copout at the time, but i could only think of a couple of people that i really wanted to live for, but since then i have added alot of other things, small at first like the warmth of a fire, and the taste of fruity things (YUMMY)
admittedly i have enough reasons to stop me from killing myself, but i still drive without a seatbelt and do reckless things and think about it alot...
see how we go aye

Love is our birthright. Whether I feel it towards myself or not right now, the question becomes would I kill someone I love. If the answer is no, there must be some way to internalize that towards ourselves, to love the unloved places.

To help others live for Christ and to be a living testimony for God
To see my daughters make something of their lives
To know my biological mother after she left me for over 52 years

Who would take care of my dogs the way they need to. That is my only reason as of now. The rest is all reasons NOT taking into account that you are financially broken, emotionally raped, physically in pain, there is no end in sight for the pain, physical or emotional, and you have NO social support system. The last fricking thing someone that is this morbid feels like doing is going out to make new friends!
Good luck with your decisions. But if you have a family, a love, a person that knows you exist, that is hope, and give it more thought. I don't.

Just to deprive the dark forces of the satisfaction of making you lose all hope and kill yourself.

I live moment to moment and live to make something meaningful out of tragedies. I will not be who I was before but every day I choose to believe that something good is yet to come.
I live to give meaning to others affected by tragedies and trauma. I can no longer counsel as I hurt too much. I can just look around for beauty in the little things. it is enough to be where i am at and to look forward to better days ahead.
I surround myself with the unconditional love of my dog so I have that joy to share.

So that I can help others.
So that I can save my marriage and my family.
So that I can leave my mark in this world, and know that it made a difference.
So that I can be the first in my family to break the cycle of abuse.
So I can learn what it is, and how it feels, to be a GOOD mother.
So that I can close my eyes at night, and feel true peace.

Good reasons to live:
To see the beauty in the world--even if it's just a humble weed growing in a crack of cement, or a glimpse of the sky showing between tall buildings.
To be able to add to the beauty in the world--even if it's just making tea and toast for a friend, or for yourself. Wipe the table. Fold your napkin. Enjoy your tea.
To make things better for somebody else--even if it's just a kind smile at a stranger, or holding a door open for the person walking behind you.
To keep going until you can really shine your light onto the world...because your combination of gifts is unique.
To be able to say "I had hard times, but I worked my way to better days."
To be able to pass this on to another person.
Whoever is reading this, breathe deeply, be assured that you can make a positive difference in the world, and be kind to yourself. Start small and keep going. Life is a gift, even when it’s painful. I'm not just saying this--I'm comforting myself at the same time.
Thank you for running this Web site. Would you consider starting a wall where people could post their responses to the "reason to live wall?"

One of my big reasons to live is my family (my sister, my two brothers, my niece and nephew). My parents passed away eleven years ago and my life have been full of obstacles, but everytime I face a difficult situation I think on my family. They expect great things from me and I can not defraud them. In difficult times when I feel alone I also think on my parents and I remember those wonderful moments that we shared together. Remembering those moments make me feel that my parents are still next to me. My dream of transfering to a four year college next semester is another reason to live. By writing this sentences my mind and my heart is starting to find more and more reasons to live. Lifeis so short that we have to make sure that we find a reason to live in everything we do, and in everyone who is around us. I learned that in life there are not mistakes only lessons.
