If you had no family, children or friends in your life what would be the thing that kept you going, made you want to get up in the morning etc?

Getting out of bed each day can become more of a habit/chore rather than something that makes you happy and it isn’t as simple as waking up one day and being unhappy but a gradual realisation you aren’t happy with the status quo.
I know someone who did change her and her families life completely because of a constant feeling of discontentment and annoyance and growing anger with the weather
The grey skies and going to work and coming home in the dark for a good part of the year. Not going out because the weather was awful. Being restricted in activities as a family they could do after school.
Within months of acknowledging her general unhappiness and realising if she stayed it wasn’t going to get better she had changed the whole families life completely
Many years later it is the best thing she did for her family.
