Screen of Awareness
In this world of screens everywhere we turn
We're glued to them, our attention yearns
The bright screens beam and flash all day
Hypnotizing us to look their way
But what about our screen within
Our own awareness, where to begin?
The screen within is just as bright
If we look inward and shine its light
Our thoughts and emotions, all on display
On the screen of awareness, they all play
We can step back and observe with care
To see what's happening, we become aware
With practice, our own screen can grow
And we begin to see and know
What's truly important, what's our truth
And we act with intention and in our youth
The screen of awareness can guide us through
The chaos and noise of what we pursue
It helps us see the beauty in life
Beyond the distractions and strife
So take some time and turn inward
To your screen of awareness, it's a treasure
It can show you the way and keep you true
To yourself and what's most important to you.
