Day 3784: Awareness

Until today, I wasn’t aware of this amazing quote about awareness:

My awareness tells me there are pros and cons of everything, including empathy.

When a surprising and upsetting poll about the 2024 USA presidential election was brought to my awareness yesterday, it focused my awareness on the negative. However, my awareness that it is now 2023, not 2024, helped broaden my awareness.

Do you see awareness in the rest of my images for today?

.

Because of my family’s awareness of Mother’s Day and also scheduling conflicts for this Sunday, they took me out for dinner last night, but I didn’t have the awareness to take any photos. Instead, I was focusing on the awareness of how lucky I am to have these people I love in my life.

Here’s what I find when I search YouTube for “awareness.”

Since I now have the awareness that it’s Limerick Day (as well as several awareness days), here’s a limerick for you:

A human whose first name is Ann,

Tries to blog every day as she can,

She shares photos and quotes

And sometimes pictures of boats,

And she’s grateful that you’re here again.

  1. I’ll try to both be there and steppin’ out into the night, Ann! Joe Jackson’s ask has made me smile through five decades now! Happy Mother’s Day weekend to you.

  2. And just like that, when you asked what I was going to do with this precious day and I said I was hoping your page would show up on one of my browsers, I clicked on the link in Twitter and voila! Here you are! I am always aware of the possibility of minor miracles.

  3. Every once in a while Aaron’s “Wig And A Coat” comes up in my recommendations and it always makes me laugh. It’s also a great example of a mondegreen. Not everyone is aware that there’s a term for that.

  4. Harley is a symbol
    of Wellness
    Awareness

  5. and I am aware of the polls but don’t put much stock in them, often inaccurate and a moving target, so I live my life without them for the most part. I am aware of people and things that I can count on, such as you and your blog.

  6. I have loved and enjoyed Aaron’s misheard lyrics for many years!

  7. I continue to count on you to help me stay aware, Ann. Thank you for the gift of awareness!
