Dear X,

Of course people differ in their beliefs about these things. But there comes a time when continuing to live is a simple act of will. I never feared death when I was young and rashly brave. I never wasted a moment's thought about risk, or loss, but did what I thought was right and joyful. But I grow old and weary. I lack ideals and causes to die for (which I had in plenty when I was young and had much life to lose). It takes more courage than I have to tolerate decay, and inability to look into a mirror, and know that briefly I must die in pain and agony and dementia so great I could not even bite my tongue. I wake every morning with a new bite on my tongue. Were it not for the love of a true woman and my granddaughter who scarcely knows that I exist, I could not bear to stay alive another minute. I recommend everyone find someone they can love and maybe be loved by, or give it up as a bad-love life.
