• @stranger_danger - This seems much similar to what I have did..but the initial 8 years its a bit different....I used to dress up clean,speak humble,work my ass out but nothing made me happy but it seemed like I am the happiest person on earth to my family...But now I left my job, started farming, I wear whatever I want, I don't answer to anyone, I am happy but now I want to get rid of the people who advice.


  • @anup123 before my episode with depression
    ..I used to dress dapper,the best of clothers,the perfect attitude..I was the ideal obedient child for teachers to gush about & parents to show off at meetings..

    I used to work hard & got good grades ,but was never happy.

    Our situation seems so similar yet so different...like looking through a mirror darkly...

    Are you surviving? Or are you living?

    Rn(right now) I'm at the stage of living life happily with my family. The surviving part comes later so imma be ready now!


  • I am living everyday.
    Right now its limited, as life proceeds, territories will expand!


  • @Willoww That's a very interesting topic you brought out Willow. We all undergo this dilemma about our life and we tend to justify our life either as living or surviving. We tend to project our life as SURVIVING if we find ourself out of our comfort zone and when everything goes as wished and planned, it's LIVING that we call.

    To me, LIVING and SURVIVING goes hand in hand. One can not survive without living and vice versa. Life has always been a struggle for living as well as survival. Right from the millions of sperms racing among each other, of which one lucky DUDE fights with all odds to give birth to a new life.... till the struggle of the last breathe that a person takes before resting in peace for eternity.

    Humans are blessed with emotions and expressions. Being one of the most intelligent species, we seek safety, stability and prosperity. So, we all are LIVING and we struggle to make our life better and happier. Not everyone is born rich (money, good food, family, love, care, so on). So, I won't say that the struggle is fair when it comes for LIVING. But, there are people among us who are not even born with luck, as if fate has decided to provide only hardship and unhappiness. People living in hostile environment with constant fear of death, those are the people who are actually struggling for SURVIVAL.

    So!! guess again.. what are you ? LIVING or SURVIVING.! coz for me.. I am LIVING a hell of an awesome life, with family, friends, TWS and readers like you guys.


  • @sammy hey ..i know that what i am typing is not related to your lines but i went through your profile and to be honest you are the first indian i saw here ....so i wish we could talk .if you dont mind to talk to an indian ..i am following you ...follow me back if you think we can talk


  • @nik-sub-blz - That's really good outlook which u have written over here. But As said by someone "Everyone is at war with themselves", and its the most hostile situation compared to the war zones where people fight to each other. Fighting our inner feelings is most difficult.fear of death is totally different.

  • @sammy surviving and living r different we live when we exactly knw what we want to do and that things we r doing but surviving is when we have no idea where we r and where we r going in life just wasting our life fullfill faKE desires and it costs lots of regrets
