10 Reasons To Keep Living
Be Well Buzz

We all face our own battles and demons. Some of us may be struggling with life a little more than the next person. Truth is, we don't ever really know what's going on in someone else's head or what they might be dealing with behind closed doors. But whatever someone is going through, there's always a few good reasons to keep living this beautiful life.


1) You mean so much to someone.

Whether you believe this or not, there is at least one person (and probably many more) who would be devastated without your existence.

2) Most of us haven't even lived half of our lives yet.

There is so much more time for greatness and happiness. Be there to experience it.

3) Change can happen in a blink of an eye.

You're allowed to change your life around however you want, whenever you want.

4) Your future may be brighter than you think.

Possibly a mini you and the person you love could be running around a few years down the road.

5) There are many people you probably love on this earth and just imagine all those things you will miss in their lives if you leave them.

Weddings, graduations, perhaps the birth of a child. You should be there to experience the happiest of moments of your loved ones.

6) Traveling is good for the soul.

And there are endless amounts of places to go to. Don't miss out on this beautiful world.

7) Love.

Maybe you haven't met "the one" yet, but when you do it may change everything. Love is so strong and beautiful. The person you're meant to be with is out there.

8) Completing milestones!

Life is all about milestones. Graduating high school or college, being hired at your dream job, or buying your first car, maybe even apartment.

9) That one person -- or maybe a few people -- that mean something to you.

Keep fighting and living for them.

10) For the journey.

Life is all about unexpected twist and turns, be there to experience what's next.
