still cheaper than therapy*

i am saying this here. i would rather not be vegetative, thanks. not for me. we are aware of the world and of our place in it. Which you can say for a dandelion: it turns its face towards the sun, yet you don't think twice about picking it. when a tree falls in the forest, the tree doesn't know. That we can act and change the course of events. Which you can say for a dog that is deliberately stealing food from the trash. But when your dog gets cancer you put it down all the same. awareness, movement, a deliberate and active consciousness - these are essential to being human. A fetus is not a human: it does not make a choice to act.
