Living is pretending to be more than just existing, that’s why it’s full of misery.

People who complain that they’re just existing haven’t really realized that they’re just existing yet, it’s just their complicated way of saying “my pretending to be more than just existing isn’t going that well at the moment”. So they are actually telling the truth, but because they really don’t want to accept it, they are in a lot of pain when they say it.
