7 Reasons Why You Should Stay Alive

One.
The stars are waiting for you. The moon, the Milky Way, the Northern Lights, and even the sun waits for you every day hoping that you’d watch them up in the sky, wanting to hear you whisper your dreams aloud. You think that no one cares about you but what if the love of your life hasn’t met you yet and the Universe just awaits in conspiring to make it happen?

This place we live in has so many wars, negativity, evilness, and so much hatred. You, on the other hand, compel light and positivity. You have experienced so much and yet here you are standing on what you believe in. You could be an advocate of many things. You could be a soldier to win lost souls. You could be anything that this world lacks of.

Seven.

You’ve become a warrior– one that will never stop waging wars and one that will always live like it’s their only chance to survive.
