?Are you just living? Or are you alive?
Do you merely exist? Or are you truly alive?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is a very important (a critical) question for every human being.
Every human being must ask himself, do I just merely exist, or am I truly alive?
First of all, I would like to explain what is the true meaning and the deference between living and being alive.
If you eat, drink, marry, and have children, you are I fact living as are all other living things, however, is there a purpose to your life? Is there any meaning to your life? A life without purpose or meaning is simply an existence. Birds, animals and insects all exist and perform the functions of life. They don’t think about or contemplate a purpose or meaning for their existence.
Humans have a choice, they can choose a purpose for their lives or they can choose to merely exist. Religion defines for us the purpose of our life and gives meaning to our existence. If you have not been concerned or thinking about your existence; you are in fact living without a defined purpose, without some understanding of why you exist and your relationship to the universe at large. Some may describe such an individual as spiritually dead without true life or a dormant soul. You are a walking and talking body, but not a living spirit.
As Allah says in The holy Quran in Soret (TAHA) طه "But he who turned away from remembrance of me (Allah), he will have a tight and difficult life, and we shall bring him back blind to the assembly on the Day of Resurrection, he will say: O Allah! Why did you resurrect me blind, when I was able to see? He (Allah) will respond: So (it must be), because our revelations came unto you, but you forget them. In the same manner, you are forgotten on this day".
Human beings should never live without a purpose or goal. Their lives become wasted without some purpose or goal.
As Allah says in The Holy Quran in Soret (ALMOMINON) المؤمنون "Did you think that we had created you in vain, without any purpose, and that you would not be brought back to us".
And as Allah also says in The Holy Quran in soret (ALKYAMA) القيامة "Does man think that he will be left neglected without being punished or rewarded for the duties demanded from Allah".
