Life and Living

A person asked me “How long you wish to live?”.I replied “My wish is not how long I will live but it is only how I will live. A nano second of good quality living is infinite bliss compared to a hundred years of miserable 😩 existence. Living is experience in contrast to life which is only existence.”. He asked me whether he is living or existing . I replied “You are living if this experience changes you for the better. You are existing if this incident has no impact on you.”.He became silent and I walked away allowing him to be with himself for introspection on this truth .🙏🙏
