“Stay woke. Jump out of
bed, even if it makes you
dizzy. Listen to your voice,
even if it startles you.
Breathe in the smelling
salt, even if it stings you.
Stare into the light of the
reality before you, even if
it burns. If you get weary,
ask for help—whatever it
takes to keep your eyes
open. Bask in the glow
of conscious living. You
are awake. This is when
change happens.”
