Are You Living or Surviving
« on: September 26, 2014, 07:37:49 am »
I was reading in a devotional yesterday about living or surviving. If you're always running from something or to something you're surviving. As I look at my own life I feel as though I'm surviving. What are your thoughts?

I think I do a little of both.  Is that  healthy?

Right now I am merely surviving. I genuinely hope to be living in the next few months.

I admit: some days it's hard to tell.

It had to do with possibly being restless which could be a good or bad thing. Right now I'm restless, but I don't have much peace about it. I think without peace it's not very healthy.

Existing. better than some, worse than others, but miserable nonetheless.

This really intrigued me. It's an important and thought-provoking question for sure.... Surviving, definitely. And not very well because at the moment I'm mostly dependent on other people. :( I barely leave my room/the house as my anxiety builds, and I haven't done anything fun outside of the house at all this year.... Constantly nervous and tense.... Bleh. I hope that changes soon!!!! For everyone else, too --- we got to start living! :heart:

Right now my life is so busy and hectic with family health problems that I don't know myself if I am living or surviving. :-\

I am just surviving. I just hope to survive and have a roof over my head. i am really nervous about being homeless now. Surviving is so hard and full of fear.

I am barley surviving.  I need to find a job and get back to work before I loose my home and property.  I live day to day doing odd jobs if I can if anyone hires me.

I think when I go to work everyday I am trying to surviving, but when I take me vacation I know I am living I really try to enjoy myself.  :in-love:
