Finding purpose and meaning can provide motivation to keep going from "summary" of Reasons to Stay Alive by Matt Haig

When you feel as if life has taken on a gray hue, when every day feels like a battle to simply get out of bed, finding purpose and meaning can be the beacon of light that guides you through the darkness. It can be the fuel that propels you forward, even when the weight of the world feels unbearable. Purpose and meaning can come in many forms - from pursuing a passion that sets your soul on fire to connecting with others in a way that makes you feel less alone in this vast universe. It is about finding something that makes you feel alive, something that reminds you why you are here and why you matter. When you have a sense of purpose, even the smallest tasks can feel significant. Every step you take, every breath you inhale, becomes part of a larger journey towards something greater than yourself. It gives you a reason to keep going, even when the road ahead seems daunting and insurmountable. Finding purpose and meaning is not about grand gestures or monumental achievements. It is about finding joy in the everyday moments, in the simple pleasures that make life worth living. It is about embracing the beauty of the present moment, even when the past weighs heavily on your shoulders and the future feels uncertain. Purpose and meaning can be the anchor that keeps you grounded when the storms of life threaten to sweep you away. It can remind you that you are not alone, that there is a reason for your existence, no matter how lost or hopeless you may feel. So, when the darkness closes in and the world feels like a hostile place, remember that purpose and meaning can be your guiding light. It can be the hand that reaches out to pull you back from the edge, the voice that whispers, "You are not alone. You are loved. You matter."
