What's The Point of Living?

My husband has been retired for about 8 years and his mental and physical health are deteriorating. He hasn't found himself a hobby outside of social media and he's spent many of his days staring at a computer screen, a smart phone or a tablet. Things You Should Know Over time, his mind and body have been slowly breaking down until his body got to the point where it filled up with fluids, his muscle tone is significantly reduced and his "get up and go" got up and left. Mentally, he is always tired and rarely leaves our bedroom.

As a spiritualist, shaman and mystic, I understand this is a choice he is making for his life. As his wife however, it's been a struggle. I tried very hard to engage my husband in life. I suggested spontaneous road trips which we used to do all the time or going to movies I know he would enjoy. I encouraged him to take up sailing and fishing, both of which he loved doing as a child. Basically, I felt like I've been trying to keep him alive.

At times, I forget myself and engaged in his depressive behaviours and attitudes. What's the point of living when no one around me seems to want to fully engage in life? When I start asking myself these types of questions, that's a sign I am heading down a dangerous path and one I don't choose for my life. What's the point of living when no one around me seems to want to fully engage in life? The point is because I'm still alive! 

I am still here to experience all of the incredible gifts that life brings. We all make choices for our lives. People can suggest activities and experiences you might be interested however, the truth is we ultimately make our own decisions. No one can make you do anything unless you allow it to happen.
