I know. But this is where you have to reach for the vague possibility that the future holds something that you will be sad to miss. And that there are people who would miss you. Or maybe, even more than miss you - who really needs you? You just don't know what things you are supposed to be around for to put in motion. I like to think of the ripple effect - you help someone and maybe they help someone else and so on.
It is hard. I know that. Believe me. When I get tired of fighting all the memories and the various and sundry folks who need stuff from me, the first thing I want to do is sit in my closet all day. The next thing is jump off the nearest bridge -- and I have several to choose from. So I'm not patting you on the head lightly and saying, "there, there." I know the struggle and the lure.
But fight it anyway.
