Being Conscious
Knowing you are conscious comes with
Breathing your first breath
Crying your first tear
Spilling your blood
Being conscious means
Knowing yourself
Knowing your ideals and standing for them
Shedding your skin and experiencing new things
Breaking the old and changing yourself
Not being conscious means
Allowing others to sway you
Leading you away
Being passive and almost non-existent
Sometimes being conscious can be hard and it is easier to let others lead and rule you, but if you are not conscious then what are you? Are you really living?
