This is not anthropomorphizing.  From a dryad's point of view, attributing consciousness to human being is DEIMORPHIZING.  Nonetheless it is evident from patient observation that human beings do behave in a purposive and loosely “organized” fashion - albeit not so organized or purposive as , say, a colony of termites.  Let alone a healthy forest.  So humans CAN be said to possess awareness of a certain, limited kind.

Maybe the world is not a stage at all.  Maybe the world is a totally real and very serious place, and all the people in it are exactly what they appear to be.
Maybe the Normal People (i.e., who think their jobs are important, get regular haircuts, mow their lawns) are the ones who have it right, who really understand the way the Universe is wired.
Maybe having a sense of humor is okay - at least in your own private time - but not strictly necessary for a good and valuable life.  Maybe life, in the end, is no laughing matter.  Maybe death is no laughing matter.  Maybe God does not make jokes, does not laugh at YOUR jokes, and is not amused by this sort of speculation.
Maybe the way teenagers feel is just a phase.
Maybe you have to give up your youthful illusions sooner or later.
Maybe the suburbs are really good, healthy environments.
Maybe young minds need to be shielded from dangerous ideas and pictures of naked people touching each other.
Maybe the thinning of the ozone layer is due to natural cyclic factors unrelated to the Gulf Atlantic quarterly earnings report.
Maybe rich people need a tax break so they can save and invest and create a climate of economic vitality which will benefit all Americans in the long run.
Maybe people like you should go live somewhere else.
Maybe humankind's destiny is in the stars.  Or in digital circuits.  Or pure thought.  So the “natural” world is not that big a deal, in the long run.
Tex & Molly deliberate upon these and other issues, finally reaching a verdict
Nah.
