You have plenty of reasons to live. #1 is, you have the love of God and that is all you need. You dont live for people, you live for yourself. You were born in this world alone and you will die by yourself. You have to live for tomorrow. Im sure you are loved and have friends and family. People care about you that you may not even know care. I don't know you and I care.

If you have read "A General Theory of Love" by Dr.'s Lewis, Amini and Lannon you will know that the emotional connection to other people is absolutely necessary for infants and small children to survive and vital later in life. It's a proven medical fact.
But of course later you can compensate, a job, a hobby, philosophical or religious contemplations can help you exist. Those could then be construed as 'reason to live'.
But the most natural reason is definitely the limbic (emotional) connections with other living beings, may they be animals friends or family.

All human beings were created with a purpose. The Bible says that we were all made to glorify God. Some do so, more than others, through trial and hardship, loneliness and abandonment. Others do so with the, humanly speaking, good things in life. The point is that we all have something to live for...glorify the Triune God of the Bible by faith (trust) and repentance (changed lifestyle) toward the Messiah Jesus.

Many! In particular, finding friends to enjoy life with and finding a mate to start a family, which I would then enjoy sharing with my friends.
The alternative to living is unacceptable to most Christian/Judeo folk. So, reach out to see what life has to offer you. And then, grab your bit of what is waiting for you. Otherwise , the alternative to life may just catch up to you. And once its over, its over.

Yourself. As the old saying goes, there are only 3 people I can trust: Me, myself and I.
Then there is the idea because that is the way to live.

knowledge, a questioning mind, eyes that behold the beauty of nature. Some people are loners and they thrive.

I have neither and the only "reason" I'm alive now, is because it's a sin to commit suicide.
