Day 26 → Have you ever thought about giving up on life? If so, when and why?

Actually, no, I am too optimistic to give up on life and I love my family way to much to do that to them.  The hardest things in life for me are losing loved ones...the  thought of not having my husband paralyzes me.  I cannot see life without him and hope I do not have to experience that for many, many, many years.  The idea of not having my parents hurts a lot, but it is something I know will come eventually...I just keep hoping it is at least another 20 years out...So, to me there is nothing in life that could be bad enough to give up on life...losing a child is the hardest thing in life in my mind, and even then I would accept that it was time for the child's soul to rejoin God and the rest of our family.  It would hurt, but again, not a reason to give up.

I have always been the optimist, seen the good in things and the possibilities.  That makes me happy...and I think I will stick with it...
