I couldn't agree more, but our level of awareness isn't really up to us, IMO. My brain is always on rapid-fire. If I'm not actively engaged and challenged by something, it's running all over the place and wants to understand and scrutinize every detail of life. I don't feel that this is something I can 'turn off.' In many ways I am jealous of the 'simpler individual' that is clearly different. But we are who we are, and gotta make due with it. We all have strengths and weaknesses, and have to learn how to apply them to life in order to live it to it's fullest. (Or whatever you personally believe in, spiritually.
