Being Alive vs Feeling Alive, which one are you?

[thegreenyogi]

Do you think there's a difference? And do you think that it's becoming harder to feel alive?

[OneViewpoint]

Sure, some people have a heartbeat and brain waves but are basically waiting to die. No curiosity, no interests. They never challenge themselves. They haven't grown in years. They take no risks. They feel safe.

I prefer to push myself to my limits and experience everything worth experiencing. Even if that means risking death and the occasional failure. What scares me is wasting my life.

Yeah there's a difference between being alive and feeling alive.

I think there's a big difference in the moment, yes... for good or bad, better or worse...

being alive is a state of being, yes... but feeling alive is so much more, and it takes ALL of your whole being and more to go through such moments

and so... I would not say I am either, as I am definitely both... at different times...

and, I do live to live, after all...

Feeling alive comes and goes for me. Some days like today, I feel alive usually when I'm most happy. And then other times it's just being alive. But yes there is a difference, I feel.

For so long I took everything for granted and ran through things I should have taken the time to enjoy


Since the injury I can’t really run.
It’s given me a chance to feel alive on a few occasions just by doing regular things that I thought I would never do again


I don’t know how long it will last though

Being alive for sure!

Someone to crowd you with love
Someone to force you to care
Someone to make you come through
Who'll always be there
As frightened as you of being alive
Being alive
Being alive
Being alive

being alive.

I believe there is a huge difference for the fact that last time I felt alive was when I was 13. since then I only been surviving and dragging myself through life like a zombie which doesn't really feel alive if you ask me
