What is a person?

Is it a human being?

Or simply anything living?

Am I a person? How about you?

How about your pets, your dogs and your cats

Or the primates that can think like we can?

I have heard that anything self aware

Is a person, but who can really decide?

Get rid of your predetermined assumptions

That have been passed down to you

And really think about this

Let it soak into your mind

It could change how

You look at some

Things in your

Life
