Awareness Is Worthless

Awareness cannot be taught. 
Awareness cannot be learned. 
Awareness cannot be investigated.
Awareness cannot be sold.
Awareness cannot be marketed.
Awareness cannot be spun.
Awareness cannot be caught.
Awareness cannot be found or lost.
Awareness cannot be created.
Awareness cannot be conceptualized. 
Awareness cannot be analyzed. 
Awareness cannot be deconstructed. 
Awareness cannot be seen, heard, touched, tasted, or smelled.
Awareness cannot be known.
Awareness cannot be burned.
Awareness cannot be wet.
Awareness cannot be cut.
Awareness cannot be wounded.
Awareness cannot be lost.
Awareness cannot be increased or decreased.
Awareness cannot be practiced.
Awareness cannot bring you peace.
Awareness cannot bring you ease.
Awareness cannot increase your bank balance.
Awareness cannot offer anything at all other than your dissolution...
making room for the hum of the refrigerator; the rumble of the UPS truck; the smell of smoke; the feeling of a tight neck; the light's reflection on the salt shaker; gas pains; a wrinkled paper napkin; the thought of the dog and cancer; the click of the cat's claws on the linoleum floor; the lime-green buds on the tree; the cardinal on the black iron feeder. 
Disappointment is a good beginning - it gives Life a tiny crack through which to enter.
