Holly's Top Ten Reasons To Live

Time: 6:54 P.M.
I'm wearing: Black 1998 Amy Grant tour shirt, black capris and the cast.
I last ate: Shells with marinara at Mario's for dinner.
Song that's in my head: "Where Are You?" by Bosson.

You know what? Surfing Open Diary, I find a lot of people who wish to kill themselves. I must say that, no matter how bad things have gotten in my life, I have never had the desire to commit suicide. Hopefully, these ten reasons that I have to live will inspire others not to intentionally bite the dust either.

10. The chance that you could go to Hell. I'm not sure if it's necessarily true, but The Bible says you'll go to Hell if you kill yourself. And Hell's gotta suck. I mean, it doesn't have a very good rep, does it?

9. Vacations. Plan yourself a really fun vacation. That way, you'll have something to look forward to. "I'd probably better hold off killing myself until I get back from Florida." And when you get back from Florida, odds are, you won't want to kill yourself anymore, 'cause Florida rocks.

8. Parfait. Like the donkey from Shrek says, everybody loves parfait. And what if there's no parfait when you die?

7. Family and friends. I'm tellin' ya, they may get on your nerves sometimes, but they're gonna care if you're not around anymore. Could you really be so selfish as to kill yourself when you know how upset your sweet old grandma would be if you did?

6. Pets, especially dogs. Whether you're lonely or not, they'll stick by your side through thick and thin, so you'll always have a friend in ol' Fluffy.

5. The news. Good Lord, watch the news! Those people *always* have it worse than you do, don't they?

4. That guy/girl you've had a crush on forever. Chances are, they will be yours one day. But not if you're dead!

3. Services like KaZaA and Morpheus. It's so easy to live these days. You don't even have to pay for your music anymore!

2. Church (or some type of religious place). Church *always* cheers me up. The people there are truly happy to see you, and so is God. It'll really cheer you up, believing in something. And my church has a coffee hour, which has unlimited free donuts! Woo hoo!

1. Johnny Bravo. You've gotta live, just to see what hilarious situtation that stupid guy'll get into next.
