Live vs Exist

In my life, I have meant all walks of life. From people who are living the dream, working for their dream, and settling for something less, everything. I love all of these people to death, but some of them are extremely unhappy with their life that they actually comtemplate (please tell me the correct spelling) life frequently. But, they do not realize that they can drop everything and leave. That they can live the life they want to live. Everyone's happiness and dream is different. My idea of happiness is extrememly different from yours probably. However, do what you need to do in order to reach that. Life should not be dreadful. It is suppose to be beautiful, but you have to make it beautiful. In order to actually live, you have to be happy, or you just exist. Just saying.

Let's be honest. We either want two things, a pause button or a rewind button. I want a pause. Sometimes, I do not want any good moment to end. Or I can have a slow-mo button, to make every good moment last longer. There are days where I do not want them to end because they make me so happy. There are days where I want to like that until the day I die because I am in peace. Yes, I rather not be in the past, however, because I do not want to go back. I prefer to live in the present, but have good moments last longer.

I feel infinte, complete in some parts of my life. The moment where you do not care what the weather is, how broke you are, how you are with the people you love most in the world at that time, where you do not care how bad the world seems, where you are just happy. I strive to get that feeling again, but haven't felt that in a long time. I feel lucky to have felt it because some people do not even feel it until the day they almost die.

Anyway, thank you for being there for me. There are some good people out there, promise. We all have to look for them.

Would you rather have a pause or rewind button? Why? Have you ever had that feeling of pure happiness? When was it? Can you describe it?
