The Great German Philosopher guy tells how the human course has three stages: start as Camels (Beasts of Burden), Lions (Freedom of Pursuit) and Children-like (Return to being spontaneously authentic to our passions, now with more clarity).
The first one starts when we are required to find a job and / or leave the care of parents. Then we afford the means to express the liberties we desire to strive for. Finally we return to that period of life when everything was lighter, which means the weight of responsibility, freedom of choice and every other burden becomes just another catalyst to a more integrated form of self-expression coded by DNA (Nature) and shaped by society (culture).
In terms of this awareness you speak of, attention can be a tricky fucker to deal with. You see (ha), in order to our perception not become overloaded with irrelevant stimuli, our brain decides to ignore a great part of what our eyes sends as signals - framing it as noise. Some core-traits of reality become obscured by this process, so this illuminated new way suffers from dichotomy and is always accompanied by lack of light also.
We like to think we enlighten ourselves when we reach adulthood in comparison to pubescence, but - in reality - we just choose to redirect our attention to different aspects of rightful living. The shade that obscures our capacities for reason just start to happen in more subtle ways because now we're immersed in societal norms that one must not deviate so as to not pay hefty costs now that we can't claim innocence. Nietzsche calls these the False Idols we must contend with but not sacrifice ourselves towards pleasing them.
