The thing is that when people become 'aware', they step out of conjecture and into the path of verification. Wondering isn't enough anymore!

Your inspiration will never falter, my dear. The day I lose my curiosity about what lies behind the next twist and turn, that's the day when I am truly dead, physically or not.

I don't think of it as a stairway.  For me, it's more like a winding path and I just try to keep my footing.  Loved your poem though...
