You are here to do something amazing with your life. You can make conscious choices that will have long-term positive impacts on your future and the futures of others.

You can choose to learn to focus your mind; and as your mindset changes, your life will change. In the early days of the Covid-19 pandemic, during the global lockdowns in April of 2020, Titus Naso challenged himself to write a poem a day for a year.

The poems selected for "Affirmations and Awareness" represent the forces of change, at work during that year as they have rarely been seen. Change was at the forefront of everyone's awareness during that year, both on a personal and a larger social level.

These poems not only describe how one person turned his life around; they also show how you can turn your life around, too. These poems offer courage, hope, a path towards a brighter future.

These poems offer a moment to sit back and take in an awareness of the flowers, the clouds, the precious moments of each day. These poems offer reflective insights, humor, and gritty determination.

May these poems encourage you as you travel along your own personal life's journey. .
