Awareness Is Everything

Awareness is everything 
But, we must be willing to open our eyes
For they do not see everything 
Moments often catch us by surprise 
The unpredictability of life 
Often puts us in this position 
So thought provoking 
Nothing but an inquisition 
The fickleness of life 
Often takes our breath away 
Confusion and frustration 
Makes its appearance each day 
When we lack awareness 
It can lead to total chaos 
Filled with bewilderment 
Some of us may appear to be lost

Very profound, existential message, BSP. That laser focus awareness leads to a higher elevation of consciousness, I agree. Wonderful poetry of wisdom. Love and more love to you and yours.
