I suppose it's the senses, especially vision. I love to worship nature, and watch it grow. I love art and architecture. Composition keeps me interested in life. I like to see how all the pieces of life (can) fit. When I haven't been happy, I still feared death and consequences. When I didn't fear death, my children/husband kept me going. My children motivate me to be a healthy role model, otherwise I might not care enough about myself? Not sure.

Coffee makes me look forward to morning. The seasons keep me interested in the year. I always have a project I'm working on..I leave projects one step unfinished so I always have something to go back and do.

Words are very important to me too. Either a single word or a catch phrase keeps me going. Words have power. Writing/reading keeps me going. Learning new vocabulary. Etc etc. These days, expressing myself vocally is the challenge that keeps me going.
