Just thought I’d add my story. I suffer from a neurological condition that means I’m in agony 24/7. I want to die more than anything I’ve ever wanted and I’ve tried to end my life a few times. However, I’ve now resolved to take one day at a time and not end my life. I know my family would be devastated, and I’m doing this for them.
I’d like to encourage other people to take the suffering upon themselves to save their family grief. It is possible to grit your teeth and focus solely on getting through the present day.

Tell me what resides beyond this day, that i am striving to reach.
Tell me what awaits beyond the horizon.
Tell me what is actually there to be attained, that i can actually achieve with whatever amount of effort i can will myself to produce.
Tell me why tomorrow is worth today, and all the memories of broken yesterdays, and reminders of broken dreams of tomorrows that will never be, no matter how hard i might try, or how lucky i might be.
Tell me what’s so great about tomorrow. Judging by the last 10,000 days, there won’t be anything both available and worth reaching.
Beautifully put clevername.
