Someone asked me if I ever thought of ending everything, what made me stay?

Of course, most people will say... because of him or her. But, will my answer be different if I say mine?

If I ever thought of ending everything, and what made me stay. My answer is the future.

I find it solace to answer the future, cause if I ever think of ending everything I'll just think of the future and forget everything. I'm not living for the present, but I'm living for the future. I mean, aren't we all?

When someone made a promise, aren't we waiting for the future? When we decide to do everything, aren't we going to the future?

Basically, everyday is the future. It's like a mystery gift we unbox everyday to find out what's inside.

The future make me want to stay. The future is a gift I love to unbox, yet it maybe happy, sad, or anger but we can always put it on the trash if we don't want it right?

Did you realize something? It's a metaphor that I love to say too. "Put it on the trash if you don't want it." Basically, forget about the past.

Sometimes we might feel like we don't want to continue, or sometimes the opposite. I feel like that too. But what always make me stay is the future, we don't know what the future holds and I still want to unbox it. I still want to hold on for the future.
