Merely existing is going along with society. Wake up, eat, drink, work, come back, sleep. Just giving into society makes you merely exist, and sitting in the background.
Living is doing what you want. Taking a step away from the crowd to pursue your very own path in life. Travelling the world, seeing things other people don't see, doing things that the average Joe Bloggs doesn't get to do. Experience life for what it is - humans only catch a tiny glimpse of life in the world, so it must be used to pursue desires.
Otherwise, you're only put on the earth for you're use in evolution. The human race is all about evolving, but its not just about reproducing and continuing the race, but also to advance in our knowledge and understanding of our own lives

God didn't put us here just to indulge ourselves or have a good time. God put us here for a purpose—and that purpose is to live for Him and experience the joy of His presence every day.
The problem is, God wants to be at the center of our lives‐but so do we. We want to run our own lives and be free to do anything we please because we think that must be the path to happiness. But when we live only for ourselves, we find it doesn't bring us happiness after all. In fact, a life of self-indulgence only leads to emptiness. The Bible warns, "There is a way that seems right to a man, but in the end it leads to death" (Proverbs 14:12).
But God has another way for us—His way! It alone is the way of peace, and it alone will bring us true happiness. Not only that, but His path alone will lead us to heaven. What is that way? It is the way of the cross—Christ's cross. On the cross Christ took away all our sins and selfishness, and now He wants to come into our lives and replace them with His love.
Jesus said, "I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full" (John 10:10). Turn to Christ today and ask Him to come into your life. Then ask Him to begin changing you from within—and He will, as you yield your life to Him and allow His Word, the Bible, to shape your life every day.

it's a dream; a dream that can become a lucid dream where anything is possible

To give life to all that you see, you were given life, this is your gift to give as you please. Learn to create love, harmony and peace in your life.
