" Don't live in a way that makes you feel dead. "

To feel dead inside is to go through a difficult phase of processing emotions of sadness and happiness. We all experience this feeling frequently in our life. This feeling can also trigger emotions that will make you feel sad for no reason even if life is going well. Life can be boring and there will be a sense of loneliness creeping inside us.

But these thoughts and feelings are temporary, when we find true meaning in our lives and question our existence, we would see that life is short-lived and we must enjoy every moment before we die.
