What's your reason for waking up each day?
Sorry if this is random, but I dunno. I guess after the new year began I started to think about it and wanted to make something worth while out of 2007. I think to make something positive happen, you have to be happy with your life. I guess my reason for waking up each day is my family- this may sound corny but it's true. Another big factor would have to be school- I want to do well, in the present and the future. thumbsup.gif

So what is your reason for getting up everyday?

I wake up to go to school, so I can learn, so I can go to a good college, so I can one day have my dream job and/or colonize Mars and/or send a rover to Europa. _smile.gif

I wake up everyday knowing
life will go on without me
even if I choose not to.

Basically living for myself until
my time on this planet ruins out.

Oh yes, not to mention for school. That too.

The reason I get up every day is to live another day of my life. Sometimes I regret sleeping so late because then I end up losing half a day where I could've done something productive.

So what is your reason for getting up everyday?




my reason for waking up in the morning is basically the same as yours but kinda different. my reason for waking up in the morning is school because i want to do well but i want to do well so i can support my family. i mean like my mom and sister and grandparents and aunts and auncles. i have a big close family and since i'm the oldest of my siblings and cousins i've always had to take care of evreryone. i've always played nurse and advice giver and best friend and home work helper. so really the reason that i wake up in the morning is so i can basically take care of my familiy. because i love them all so much.

I've read through this thread, thinking it would be interesting; boy, was I sorely disappointed. Most of the responses are along the lines of "because I have to" or "because my [insert family member here] wakes me up". Sure, a few gave intriguing, well-thought-out answers like "my family" or "God", but as for the other answers, I have yet to decide if those posters:
  1. were trying to be funny;
  2. completely missed the point of the question;
  3. didn't feel like actually thinking of a stimulating answer (which is, sadly, the truth for about 90% of CB's posts); or
  4. lead really, really depressing and pathetic existences.
I'm hoping for (a), but let's just say I'm not holding my breath.

I wake up so I can do fun things like web design. It's pretty much all I think and talk about most days. But then I have school (which starts tomorrow >_<) which is important, so I work hard and have a 4.0, but I still don't particularly like waking up to go to school.

I'm hoping for (a), but let's just say I'm not holding my breath.

Fair enough -

I wouldn't say I lead a depressing life and I'm certainly far from pathetic, but sometimes life feels very depressing. Several times I find myself not dreading the moment I wake up, but dreading the moment I have to get out of my bed. My life is more often than not utterly exhausting and the thought of going outside the house, into the city where I moved six or so months ago feels cold, friendless and unsatisfying. Sure, I adore my kid and that should be enough for anyone to wake up but wouldn't it be a marvel to want to get out into the world because of me? Because I want to, and not out of obligation?

So why do I do it? Why get out that comfortable, warm bed that I can lay in, day dream in and not have to deal with anything?

Hope. Everyday brings a new opportunity. I'm not talking about a job opportunity (although that can happen to) or an opportunity to find a great deal on a pair of shoes (not that I'd be apt to pass that up). Nothing like that. I hope every morning that when I rise out of bed, I am going to see something, experience something, maybe meet someone and live all the more for it. Human interaction is something that terrifies me more than I'd ever really want to admit. It's why I'm on the computer all the time, other than being on the computer for necessary reasons (ie, work, school etc).

This morning I arose with the hope that when I see my mother again (when I get home) she will have more than the somber, sullen and defeated look on her face that she typically has. Maybe I'll run across a funny joke, a good recipe to share, a great song to listen to or a piece of beautiful art I could show her. I will have made a difference in someone's life. That is something to wake up for. That is something I wake up for.

I'm not going to get deep into why I wake up for my child. Quite frankly, that is obvious (for those who know me, know how much that kid is my entire universe). What I'm looking for, what I'm waking up for is inclusive of that, but also a great deal more than that.

Bottom line, life can seem so sh*tty but there's beauty in it and I'm going to wake up every morning and hopefully discover more of that beauty.

Tommorow, I'm waking up because it's my birthday. tongue.gif (Just kidding)

The reason in which I wake up (quite early -- 5:00 AM) on a daily basis is so I can live my life to the fullest, and so I can experience different aspects of life, whether that be education, friendship, love, bettering myself, helping/giving to others, etc.

This is a cute thread, by the way. =)
