Conscious Experience: What is Conscious Experience? (Part 1 of 2)

I've been meaning to write on this topic for the longest time now but just kept procrastinating. A big reason I delayed talking on this particular topic was that I didn't want it to be just brushed over; I wanted it to be something that, after reading it, a whole new way of seeing the world would "awaken", something "spiritual" in a sense. Whether or not I achieved this is completely up to you to decide.
Another reasonor excuse if you'd prefer—, for my procrastinating was the sense of "Can I really talk on this topic effectively?", in more personal terms, a sense of inadequate knowledge on the topic or, at least, not to the extent that I deemed reasonable for the endeavour.

So what makes me feel "capable" now?
I don't know... Should we spend the whole day discussing why my mind chooses to do what it does when it does? A discussion of free will and the likes? Is that what we're about to do right now?

Nah.
