The Difference Between Existing and Living

There’s a huge difference between simply existing and truly living. Existing means going through the motions like breathing, eating, ticking off your daily tasks. But living? Living is about actively engaging with life, pursuing goals, and facing challenges head-on, even when it feels impossible.


As a single mom, it often feels like I’m caught in a cycle of responsibility with little time for myself. But I’ve learned that setting small goals whether it’s developing a career, nurturing my relationships, or finding time to care for myself helps keep me moving forward.


Each year, we hear the saying “New year, new me,” and while many may not stick to their resolutions, setting those intentions is a reminder that we are always striving for growth. Even on days when I feel like I’m falling short, just trying reminds me that I’m still moving toward something meaningful.
