Living to know I’m alive
The most exhilarating feeling comes from choosing how you live - on your own terms.
Nothing should take that away from you.
Life is the greatest gift that mankind has received - our existence causing a shift in the natural world.
I define my life by how I feel, act, represent myself, and live my life.
To me life itself is remarkable; we can make something out of nothing.
And change our lives with the smallest decision.
Life in its entirety is something to strive for - something I strive for.
My existence and my life are two different concepts:
If I only existed, and did not live, then I am wasting my potential and the chance to better society.
I would not understand what it meant to put someone first.
But, if I live while existing, then I am achieving greatness undiscovered by many unfortunate people, and more profound than any secret the world could hold.
This gives me a reason to look forward to my hardships and shortcomings.
Because I know I can make through to the end.
I know I can make a difference.
It all depends on my worth and effort.
This is why I choose to live.
I live for the betterment of the people as well as myself.
And this is why life itself is awesome.
