What makes you happy to be alive? What sustains you?

Rules:

Be positively oriented. This is about what makes life worthwhile, not what makes death a bad choice.
Keep it specific and personal. No preaching.
Start your reasons with "RTL", and subreddit-related posts with "META"
Don't be a dick; bigotry and abusive behavior will not be tolerated. Please help us out by reporting any dickishness you encounter, and/or by messaging the mods about it.

Suggestions:

Post early, post often. One can never have too many reasons to live!
Going through a rough patch? Challenge yourself to post a new reason every day.
