what makes you happy to be alive?

i think life is fascinating. there's so much to do, feel, love, experience, take on, overcome, it's just this crazy, ridiculous, unpredictable book that is continuously writing new chapters with twists at every turn. i just enjoy taking it all in, if that makes sense. even at the worst of times.

on a more specific note, pasta, dogs, otters, pokemon, parks and rec, women, coding, animation, reading stories, watching stories, writing stories... all very integral things to the happiness in my life haha

internet please keep making that shit

Hm? Yes I saw the [Serious] tag, what makes you think I was joking?

The upcoming Symphogear seasons are pretty much the only reason I've not killed myself recently.

My fear of death
Many kinds of things but my friends and family on the first place. If I wasn't alive, I couldn't have good times with my loved ones and I don't want to think about that. Having good times also includes playing games, drawing, watching movies and talking about things in addition to spending time together. There are honestly so many things that I don't even remember them all.

my mum, my husbausd and my daughter

apart from the obvious things like my friends and family, i really just find the prospect of living out my life exciting. there's so much i enjoy in life and the prospect of finding more to enjoy, more people, new experiences is really something that keeps me going. every new day brings something new to the table, good or bad, and the experiences themselves make me enjoy life i guess! then there's stuff like music and writing but ehh that's too easy

The joy of existence, plain and simple. It sounds basic; but existence is just the most excitement we'll ever have. Think about it - once you're dead, whatever happens, you're no longer a player in the world. If you believe in an afterlife, sure - there's that, but you're not a part of the world anymore. If you don't believe in an afterlife, well then sh**. There's really nothing, this is it.

Waste not to enjoy it :U

music and the arts definitely. also just... little moments in life. driving in a car with your friends with the radio turned up loud and we're all singing along out of key to shitty pop rock bands. laying in bed after a long day and petting your dog or cat. one thing that really sticks with me is when hurricane matthew hit. my family had to evacuate and we all hunkered down at my cousins place. i remember that day after the storm was over and we walked out and saw all the fallen trees and debris... it was the most beautiful day. the sky was blue, it was balmy, the clouds were white and sparse. the birds were chirping. moments like that. of walking outside and just appreciating the beauty. that's what keeps me alive. the little things.

Kinda cheesy but life itself is what keeps me going.

Life is so fascinating if you really think about it, you wake up in the morning as a usual routine but it doesn't really occur that'll your morning wake-ups will end one day. Especially about killing that ant or spider and watch as the leaves wither and grow back around you.
Also just the very little things in life, having that small laugh from the very small talk you have with a very special or not so special person to the quarter you drop in a donation jar. All of those little things, especially helping around the people around you, is something else. We really do take life for granted and i hope everyone gets to acknowledge how special & precious their life is <3

my city and my friends (yall included)

Being alive in this period of time. Otherwise I'd die of boredom.

Also my overall comfortable condition.

And that I have goals.

My friends and my fandoms, whatever those happen to change around to from time to time. Also music!

my dog. anytime i see her whether it's in a picture/video or just when im home it puts a smile on my face and i truly feel joy

Loved ones, basically! Friends and family. Family is there, but mainly friends gimme love and support that I can ever ask for. :] The GF, especially. ^^ There are also the small things that matter, like the morning, the night, and the animals... life really let's you take a look at the small things you take for granted. o:

tbh it would be a bummer to miss out on great music and games if i was gone too soon so that generally keeps me going. even if i live to be 100 i'm already bitter about what i'm gonna end up missing. i'll be haunting y'all tbh. gotta keep up w shit.
