Random Thoughts on “Awareness”  

Ever wake up in the morning and physically, things feel slightly off? For example, a slight cough or stiff joints? In those circumstances, sometimes I used to  wonder what I could stave off what might become a problem. Then it occurred to me…

It’s a fine line between awareness and expectation. Sometimes  we call expectation “awareness”, for example, when something seemingly bad happens. We expect that it’s the start of something worse yet to come and feel compelled to brace ourselves. However, in so doing, could we possibly be calling more lousy things into fruition? I wonder… We do it, believing it’s the more “responsible” choice. But is that actually being aware or anticipatory? It occurs to me that this kind of “awareness” may not serve one as well as we think.
