Awareness is unique in each of us.

In awareness, there is an expansion

Of horizons of understanding

Of potential possibilities.

Yet, awareness is also about subtlety

Of understanding and of approach,

Of what is beyond bounds.

An ability to keenly discern

What is better left unsaid.

Paradoxical truth of awareness —

Awareness is both the reason

For the light of wisdom

And the despair of knowing.

Awareness raises the bar

Of comprehension by nature.

What’s important is not tilting

The balance by one’s own doing

When awareness makes us most vulnerable

To commit the very error

That we may learn to steer away from.

Such is the paradox of awareness.
