    What could possibly be more important than you? What could supercede your will to life?

    Surely the only thing that existentially matters to you, is you. Right?

    I do believe it’s your choice. But I also believe that the choice is wrong. There are countless numbers of other paths to try that could instill an essence in you.

    Try moving to a city. Try moving to another country. Try learning an instrument. Try a new language. Try finding a new partner. Try a new sport. Try finding new friends. Try hiking. Try a different job, or no job. Try a new book. I could go on.

    Try anything and everything that could prevent you from coming to a permanent end.
