It is so easy to miss the fact that
We are right in the middle of amazing
Focusing on the sorrow and trouble
Not on the joy and awesome beauty
Of the majesty of our existence
For we seem to be wired to feel the pain
More intensely than the pleasure
How can we get so lost that we forget
The innocent heart and minds of children
Who live their lives in utter joy
Who never question the amazing
Why do we lose that innocence
In the process of becoming adults
And going through the motions of aging
In the waking up and looking through the gloom
Living right next to the hard stuff
Is so much amazing stuff every day
All we have to do is open our eyes
We are right in the middle of amazing
For we are absolutely amazing
