Am I alive?

Just a small thought that crossed my mind. But lead to a great confusion. That was a simple question "Am I alive?".
This might sound silly, and some might even blink on the question and ask "Isn't it obvious?"....well i dont think so
You see me, meaning i m still present, you can talk with me, meaning i m able to make use of my senses, i can type, meaning i can make my senses work for me....but you havent found out whether i'm "actually" alive.
Now let us come to the other part of the question that is hidden and that had to be so called obvious, "Am i alive OR AM I JUST EXSISTING?"
For those of you who dont see the difference.....the plants exsist, the strom exsists, the ocean, the sun-all exsist, but do they live do we say that they are alive? So now lets see the difference between the questions...
Exsisting means we are able to move or grow and just that. While living means exsisting and a lot more. It contains various other attitudes. It contains the pursuit to grow, the intent to make others happy, the idea of excellence, the dream of conquoring, the thirst for knowledge, the urge for love, the beauty of tomorrow, the pains of yesterday, the responsibility of today, the role in this world, the celebration of relations and lot more. Now i see that as i have mentioned the second part of the question WAS obvious. Keep thinking and posting your views on it until i get back with other issues connected with this question and the problems arising because of its ignorance.
regards,
Nitya.
