Ten reasons to stay alive


Life is undoable, you only got one chance, and you should not waste it. Unless you are desperate.

A friend of mine wrote this, Top Reasons to Commit Suicide, a while ago. I thought it’d be nice to play the part wearing the angel costume as we both sit on each of your shoulders (except the halo, I never liked the halo). Don’t listen to him, he’s nuts! Unless you are really desperate, then I have no more business with you, don’t I?


Listen to me. Life is good, even if it sucks sometimes–or if in your case every time–you just don’t throw life away. Life is undo-able, we only got one chance, and you should not waste it.

Considering you are stubborn and hopeless, I do understand that the life-is-nice-talk won’t work with you. So here’s a preview of the void for you.

1. It’s a void. It’s filled with emptiness and nothingness. No matter how cruel your present life is, it doesn’t compare to the solitary feeling of being confined in a void darkness. Or not having to feel anything at all. That is, if you don’t believe in the afterlife.

2. Be ready to be an eternal roast beef. Hell is fire, though it depends on the eye of the looker, hell is comparable to nothing else but hell. And trust me, your present life doesn’t even rank C to what you’ll have there.

3. Yes indeed, you are going to hell. It’s on the written word of God. But since you don’t care much about God, we’re past the religion-talk. So…

4. Think about it, you have a family that loves you, that cares for you, that will hurt if they lose you. It’s not true that they despise you. Your mom might have disowned you but she did it for a reason. Perhaps you were bad. Try to change and everything else will follow.

5. Or maybe you don’t have much left to call a family. And that’s why you are suicidal. Think again, you have friends. They care for you as much as your family would have cared for you when they were still alive.

6. Am I wrong? Is there no one left? They all left you–unbelievable. You must really suck. But then, take a rain check. Maybe they’ll come around tomorrow. Just wait a bit, coz patience my friend is a virtue.

7. If you are a girl and you are hot, and you have no one else to hold on to, I will always be here for you.

8. Other people are dying to switch places with you. You might not think it, but that is true. Remember the day you said you’ll give everything just to be in some other guy’s shoe…or some other chick’s stiletto.

9. YOU are always better than somebody. That somebody might not be me, but sure as hell he is out there, being miserable.

10. Death is expensive. It’s a tough economy. When insurance companies starts toppling over, it’s a marker that today is a bad time to die.

Hey, if you are still so desperate, then you are way out of my league fella. Try reading this one, Top Reasons to Commit Suicide, then maybe you’ll find the solution you are looking for.
