    Perhaps what pulls us from sleep each morning with the thirst of life isn’t just one single thing, but the quiet, persistent whisper of possibility. It’s the unwritten page of the day ahead, the chance for a moment of unexpected beauty – the way sunlight filters through the leaves, the taste of a warm drink, the melody of a half-forgotten song.

    It’s the potential for connection, a shared laugh with someone, a moment of understanding, the simple comfort of presence. It’s the inextinguishable curiosity about what comes next, the subtle shifts within ourselves as we learn and grow, the resilience that finds strength even after the darkest nights. It’s the intricate, often unnoticed tapestry of sensations, emotions, and experiences that, woven together, make up the profound, fragile, and utterly unique gift of being alive, urging us gently, yet firmly, to embrace another sunrise.

    All the small moments of joy, the day when the sun finally is back after a long dark winter, the day the flowers are starting to come, every time i laugh with my friends or i meet someone i never thought i would speak to again, every time i can sit down and enjoy a big bite of a delicious cake, every time i experience something new, that’s what makes life worth living, all those beautiful moments 🙂

    And also for me: playing piano, if i dont live i can’t learn that new piece I wanted to, right? 😉

    Outliving Trump. I eagerly await the day I see the news report that he had a massive coronary infarction on the toilet and died covered in shit. Petty? Sure. Likely? Fairly. Gonna be a good week when he goes. Lots of parties in the streets around the world. And the Repubs will be so butthurt about it too.

    My life is pretty regular and nothing special. Not that I’m un-grateful but someday I would love to make myself into something or breakout with my hobby… A rag to riches story seems like something to aspire to.

    I also want to experience life to the fullest including kids an old age. Like a video game I have to make it to the end.

    We exist for such a fleeting moment in this universe. We, quite literally, have the privilege of a lifetime. We are in such a unique era in the HISTORY OF THE PLANET of knowledge and understanding.

    I’ve questioned why I should be alive 2 times in my life. Both times I was able to get out of that dark place by making new freinds that actually showed they wanted to spend time with me, and finding enjoyment in the little things in life.
