    Alive = Existing
    Truly Living = Existing and doing something or anything you enjoy and love while existing.

    truly living is doing what you want to do.
    being alive is like a vegetable.

    Alive is the quality of possesing life.
    Living is the quality of having life and choosing to use it.

    For me, truly living means enjoying my existence and finding purpose and fulfillment in it on a daily basis. Thus far, I've not experienced that in my life.

    Alive is being a rock which just exists. Living is thriving on all that life has to offer by challenging your notions, mind, and senses.
