Re: Living or existing ?
Hmm - nice one, Muddy !Living:- waking up each day glad to be still here. Enjoying what I have, what I do, what I can see, smell and touch. Respecting nature. The sense of wonder/fun/joy when I see a rainbow, stroke a cat, hear the birds singing, talk to a friend. Caring and sharing things with neighbours/friends/colleagues. Having a happy heart, feeling contented and fullfilled.
I love life and live it to the full.
Existing: none of the above!

Re: Living or existing ?
When my body is no longer exciting to live in I feel that would be existing .My thoughts go to a lovely lady who is in her 90's , just sits in a chair , unable to do anything for herself , she tells me she no longer wants to be here , wishes she could go home . Each time I visit I feel sad that she is still here and have promised to wave her goodbye when she finally is able to leave . Bless her , she is just existing and it's hard for her , long lonely days sleeping and waking .
