What is Awesome? Awesome is an adjective to describe something amazing, astonishing, magnificently breathtaking.

Something Awesome will leave you at Awe and forget about the some.                Something Awesome will shatter what is not.

Something Awesome motivates you to get out of the bed in the morning.           Something Awesome will allow you to put one foot in front of the other.

Something Awesome will keep the safety on, stop you from sliding that knife across your wrist, something Awesome will catch you when you left your faith with gravity.

Something Awesome will not flicker when the skies begin to shade! Something Awesome will push you to your furthest limit and then some! Something Awesome will look at all your problems, all your insecurities, ALL of your demons, everything that chooses to stand in your way and say "bring it."

In the beginning, I asked what is Awesome because I do not know. What is Awesome? Tell me! Tell me so I can find it! My skies are beginning to darken! My demons are preparing for war! Where is my Awesome? Who has it? Why is it so hard to find? I know Awesome is just a word but I wanted to believe. I wanted... I do not know.
