100 Reasons To Live Novels & Stories

My heart was shattered. "Why is it me who is like this?" "Why do I have no talent?" "Why can I not speak properly to my relatives?" "Why is my younger sister better than me?" "Why am I a shame to my parents?" "Am I so bad that not only other people and Charlie but my parents also think I am not beautiful?" "Why am I not beautiful?" "Am I just a burden in this world?" "Is it because I am not beautiful and even do not have talents, I did not have friends before?"

I froze for a moment as I watched the woman from yesterday run to me . " What were you going to do ? Do you have any idea how many floors this building has ? Do you want to die?" she questioned . " Yes I want to die ." I answered truthfully ."Look I don't know what you've been through but I do know that death is not the answer." I've lost everyone ,what's there to live for . I said . I'm Josy a psychologist. You can come see me whenever you want. I'm only 2 blocks away . Just remember " Place your hand over your heart , Can you feel it ? That is called purpose , You're alive for a reason so, don't ever give up."

She shrugs, then, with one final gentle squeeze of my hand, she gets up and walks to the door. “You should take the time to think. I’ll leave you to it and keep them out for some time.” With that, she leaves me alone with my thoughts. Why do I want to keep living? Who do I have to live for? What do I have to live for? Or better yet, Why don’t I want to keep living? Who don’t I want to live for? What don’t I have to live for? To live or not to live?

I said, finally admitting it as I shoved a forkful of food into my mouth to avoid their eyes. “Stop living for others. It will only make your life more miserable. Live for you,” Liam said, his voice heavy with a deep sigh. His words carried a weight of experience that I could almost feel. “Well, I lost my family, so I didn’t think I had any reason to live,” I said, shrugging my shoulders and casting my gaze downward, unable to hold their intense scrutiny. “So, what’s your reason to live for now?” Liam asked, placing his spoon down with a deliberate motion. His body leaned forward slightly, his gaze sharp and searching.

I sound like an animal and I don’t like it at all. “ I can’t. Just like how you don’t want to die…I don’t want to die either. ” I whisper, my eyes shifting toward his lips as I lick my own. This is fucking humiliating for me. “ I have a reason to live. You don’t. ” He replies, coldness radiating from his silver gray orbs. Really? “ The manipulation won’t work on me, Cain. We don’t always need a reason to live. We live because we must live. That’s something even a child knows. ” I inhale deeply and speak out, surprised at my own words.

"A reason is something you want. Something you choose. Something that matters to you. Not something you do because other people are doing it." "I do not know what I want." "Then figure it out."

"It is. That is the point. Life is exhausting. But it is also beautiful. And you do not get the beautiful without the exhausting." The eggs are cold now. The toast is cold now. The coffee is cold now.
