1. Eat food

2. I learned to fight.

3. Step one, : born
   Step two: eat
   Step three; profit.

4. Not dying

5. If you don’t eat food, you die. If you die, people write weird shit on your Facebook wall. – Don Mazzetti

6. I’m just as shocked as you are

7. Breathing helps

8. To see the better version of myself

9. I must’ve eaten something

10. Breath oxygen, eat food, drink water/liquids and get good sleep

11. i just

    lived

12. With grit and sheer determination

    *Eye of the tiger music intensifies*

13. Ingested food, breathed oxygen, drank water. Surviving was not an active choice.

14. My liver worked overtime and put up with my stupid decisions.

    Now that I’ve stopped drinking, my liver can finally get the rest it deserves.

15. Beats me.
    When I was 2-3 years old I had wandered away from my house and was found by a villager in the forrests quite a bit from home. I guess I used up all my luck then.

16. I’m terrified of the pain of dying.

17. failed at trying to end it

    and then counseling

18. Luck and/or fear of hurting the people around me

19. I dunno, I believe is magic at this point 🤷‍♂️

20. Not so lucky i gues.

21. Luck.

    But actually i have a few people that cared and helped me when i was in a bad state

    Also medication

22. I suck at killing myself.

23. I couldn’t tell ya. By all reasons of mind, I should have died a decade ago.

    I guess God wanted to keep me here for a while longer.

24. I don’t play stupid games

25. Spite

26. Not doing stupid things in stupid places at stupid times with stupid people helps

27. There is literally no time in history where it was easier to stay alive if you just kind of wanted to.

28. I kept my mouth shut, my head down, and kept moving.

29. Just Don’t die

30. I am just lucky to stay alive.

    I am 73 years old, and I know that I have a limited number of years remaining in my life.
