it amazes me how much i am unaware of what is going on around me. we create bubbles in our own visualization of reality. we forget to really stop and use all of our senses to breathe in the situation. to really become part of the world. its becoming increasingly hard to do so because everyone has such busy schedules these days... im making a conscious effort everyday at least once to really take in my surroundings.
I KNOW!!!! Its amazing!!! we become robots!, we program ourselves to do things and later on we just do them automatically..

example.. every time i get home I turn on a lamp right next to the computer right after i sit... sometimes I'll reach to turn it on EVEN THO its already ON!!
that shows how unaware I was I didn't even notice the light was on and that I didnt have to reach to turn it....

we do this with the time we go in to take a shower, we do it IN the shower... when we drive, everything becomes programed... automatic, our mind gets used to taking things like their All ordinary... normal. cause we don't stop for a minute to actually experience things...

Being aware and do things KNOWING that you're actually doing them is a great advice... (In my opinion anyways)

Because when we go thru the world doing everything automatically, when we dream its also automatic, so how do you expect to realize you're dreaming, if your mind is used to taking everything as it comes.... if that makes sense

PS: sorry if I became repetitive
