What keeps me going? Here are a few of the things that keep me going:-
Love and friendship and the highs and lows of these, without the lows we would not get so much pleasure from the highs. A smile, laugh, a hug or a kiss from a loved one makes many a bad thing seem so much better. Remember it is better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all.
New challenges being able to achieve or at least try new things is good, it gives you goals or mental challenges, mental challenges give me a different thrill to physical challenges but both are good and give a sense of achievement, even a failure can bring something to you as you can learn from it and it is often good to have at least attempted something.
learning it is alway good to learn something new, I like to find out how things work or to find out the history of things to see how they have come about, I like to discover things about the places I am visiting or am at.
the beauty of things either visible things like panoramic views, sunsets, paintings, Rain, snow, sunshine, cloud formations, the colour of the leaves in Autumn , the spring flowers, the sea, animals, humans (sometimes). It's good to wake up and see the first daffodil of spring or the first coating of snow in Winter, to go to bed after a beautiful sunset, to sit in a warm place with the Rain beating a rythm outside, to sit near the sea with the relaxing sound of the waves, well y'all get the idea.
