Thank you for this thread, WildCoyote.

I need this today, and most days, even when I feel good.
Things that keep me going -- not in any particular order:
My cat
My kind, fun, and respectful boyfriend. 
I know he'd miss me terribly -- we are both old, and don't know which of us will go first. Not a happy prospect. We are mentally fine and in good physical condition, too.
My close friends 
My music friends 
We play musical instruments and sing a lot.
My sister. 
She has forgiven me for cutting her off for almost a year.
My music 
Drawing sometimes.
I do not draw as often as I once did, but now I only draw outside, and don't copy things like I used to, such as calendar pictures. The weather her is often not suitable for drawing outside. My two best drawings are framed on my wall
