Wow, impressive. Guess we need to put on our rose-coloured glasses and see the emperor\'s new clothes in all their splendor. This is a beaut. Gorgeously rendered with excellent imagery and a curious poignancy. Thank you for sharing.

Who knows which is the best place to live Dave, it is about what we each do within that place and hope it makes us happy.

I do not know Sydney, but here London they constantly bang on about it being the best in the world and it is very very far from it, I would think this happens all around the world. I think sometimes when we are surrounded by something and see it all the time we can become blind to what it is really like, enjoyed the read

Any large city is like that Dave. Never been to Sydney but, Los Angeles, New York, Miami, Sao Paulo, Mexico City, Rio de Janeiro are all the same.

with you, my friend it\'s no other way than \'My way or the highway\'
so stay original and true to self, and live life the way you want -
change when you want to, no one else is in charge of your life but yourself, which is as it should be

the definition of consciousness is obviously going to vary from person to person - so some will point to God, some to ancestors, and some to science depending on their leaning and upbringing
for me, by the way, sorry, but though it is the first two am also considering the role science has to play..

Now, all jokes aside, is this a question that can even be answered satisfactorily? If one says God, the unbeliever will scoff and say 🙄, sure...of course. Not. Yet, if all that is answered is some sort of psychosocial response trying to explain the phenomenon, that won\'t be satisfactory either, because it fails to answer the why, let alone the what. So, for me, it\'s a mystery and I am comfortable with that. Sorry for my response above...but you set me up for it! 😂 I could not resist. Great, thought-provoking poem, my friend!

Dave, Dave, Dave, ones \" bodily frame \" is just housing for your brain, some place for it to reside and be cared for as best as is possible. \"Consciousness\" is a bio-chemical reaction within the human brain. They are not all alike (varying from happiness to total terror). The process is controlled by your DNA. Genes inherited from your ancestors. It took millennia of adaptations to beget the first conscious humans, and we may be on the road to unconsciousness. - Phil A.

Well, I can\'t give an answer other than \'God\' - ultimately, if tracing back our ancestors to.... Adam and Eve. I bet you knew I was gonna say that!
Meanwhile - \'You thinking there? You\'ll get a headache!\', Fido says to me. lol.
And - Will ya be here tomorrow too?!

Impossible for a definite answer, me, I feel I view the world through what I see and hear, that creates my feelings, thoughts and emotions and that gives weight to my existence, a tough question but enjoyable

Good write, Dave.
A thought.
We do not view the world through our bodily frame.
Nothing leaves our body to fetch back anything.
The world enters our body through our senses.
We create the world in our minds.
We could all be living in different worlds but
because we all use the same names
we agree with each other.

Being the philisopher now, are we? How am I supposed to answer in a trice, especially with your warning? Here, \"...in Him we live, and move, and have our being--\" so I didn\'t use the 3-letter word you forbade me using, but that\'s my answer. And if it\'s not your ancestors, who are you wanting???
Beautifully rendered riddle. Thank you for sharing.

I would be very pretentious to provide and answer that no one else has been able to adequately explain. Some say neurochemical but that is the same as saying God and gives no real answer being teleological in nature. So this is a tough one Dave I give. Made me think though
