So often, we have moving experiences that we have never experienced before, and we think that this epiphany has somehow changed our destiny or fate. But in reality we eventually find that the only thing we have actually changed is our awareness of our own imaginations.

I am who I am; no more, no less.

Lack of self awareness leads to self righteousness, a sly replacement of sorts.

As the expert in knowing yourself, you get to decide what you want to explore in your internal landscape.

Any person whom seeks to live a historical existence must devote their efforts to learning about the world, care about people and nature, and seek to express their thoughts in the artistic methodology most appropriate to their particular talent. A person cannot fake self-awareness or imitate an artistic nature. A person must honestly earn a heightened level of conscious awareness.

If you can remain aware of your awareness, that is the present state of mind.
