Summary/Abstract: The only life worth living is the one examined (Plato) and the only one worth examining is the fully lived one (Alphonso Lingis). The philosophical consciousness and its core of lucidity is paramount in the remembrance and return to the genuine inner self, as well as in the constitution of subjectivity. However, philosophical consciousness has its impact in the awareness of the self for socialization and sociality, in the success of relations and activities. Lucidity is vital in awakening, adequating and “training” the spirit for visionary-constructive and lucrative accomplishments, not only for analytic-critical ones. Capitalizing upon the Romanian philosophy, and especially the philosophy of Lucian Blaga (1895-1961), owning the consciousness of his human existence, the human being keeps on awakening (herself). And these awakenings are as well spiritual as lucrative, truly beneficial for the enjoyments of the exercise of thought and lucrative for everyday activities and life.
