awareness


There are moments in life
that grab ahold of you
and stop you still
reminding you of your place
in this life
and your connection to
others

even more, these moments
make you grateful, loving,
and compassionate

i want to say that they
make you aware of your ultimate 
responsibility here on earth
but that would seem too heavy

for it is more of an awareness
that our own needs and desires
are no different than those around us.
