Am I living a true life or Am I just waiting to die?

We all are struggling daily in our lives to live a better life, to have a house, a car, and lots of money or maybe something a little simple like to earn a living.
But we never stop what we are doing and ask ouselves Is this the life we always wanted?
Is this what we have dreamed about when we were children?
When we were small, we always wanted to become something else than what we are today. But we never ask ourselves why we stopped that want, that desire to be someone when we grow up, probably because we have found out something better in life. But is this something better the true purpose of our life or are we just sacrificing our inner self for the purpose of earning some materialistic things.
A lot of us were told when we were small that we have a lot of potential, that we could do something big in life. But where did this potential go?
Did it just disappeared when we grew up or did we bury it because we were not strong enough to achieve the things we always wanted?
This is the question that will give you the answer to the question "Am I living a true life or Am I just waiting to die?"
Hope You are living a true life but if not, it is never late to do anything unless you are dead.
