I donโ€™t have anything worth living for.

I know of a woman who is paralyzed, and has to live hooked to a machine.

Yet she recently fell in love and got married and is looking forward to a lifetime with her husband that will be very different than the lifetime of her past.

As long as you are alive, the possibility that everything you know will change exists. As long as you are alive, you hold the keys to make life whatever you want it to be.

But once you're gone, whatever life you had is all the life you'll ever have, and you will have given up without ever knowing how the story was going to play out, or what plot twists you missed.

I once found an abandoned litter of 13 brand new puppies, and had to bottle feed all of them every two hours for over a month.

We call it "puppy Christmas" and it was one of the hardest things I've ever done.

My family was very supportive, and a LOT of people helped. But a few others said things that really hurt, and I broke off one friendship over it.

Just hang in there; they do grow very quickly, and really do want you to be happy with them, so they start settling down after a few months.

Help.

Just walk away.

You loved him; you probably always will a little bit, but he is gone. Now, nothing you learn about his life will make you feel better, so just stop.

We've all been there; and the only thing that really helps is letting go, taking time to heal, then vowing to live a fantastic life without him.
