SELF AS REFLEXIVE PROCESS THIS IS AT LEAST PART OF WHAT I MEAN WHEN I SAY THAT I AM RATIONAL, AND THAT IT IS MY REASON THAT DISTINGUISHES ME AS A HUMAN BEING FROM THE REST OF THE WORLD. I WISH, ABOVE ALL, TO BE CONSCIOUS OF MYSELF AS A THINKING, WILLING, ACTIVE BEING, BEARING RESPONSIBILITY FOR MY CHOICES AND ABLE TO EXPLAIN THEM BY REFERENCES TO MY OWN IDEAS AND PURPOSES. I FEEL FREE TO THE DEGREE THAT I BELIEVE THIS TO BE TRUE, AND ENSLAVED TO THE DEGREE THAT I AM MADE TO REALIZE THAT IT IS NOT.
