Although it's now used as another word for cool, it literally means something that strucks awe. Something so amazing, one is in awe seeing it. But like I said, nowadays it's used just like cool.
I was struck with awe when I witnessed men landing on the moon. It was awesome.

You. You, there, sitting there looking at the screen of your laptop, or at the screen of your iPhone. I don't care what kind of things you've done in life, or how many mistakes you've made, YOU ARE A F**KIN BADASS. Keep doing what you're doing.

Used to only mean great or extremely cool, but now used as much sarcastically to mean something bad or unfortunate.

Someone who is absolutely amazing and exhibits the traits of being worthy of awe! Perfection at it's greatest. When one is considered to be amazing, it can be inferred that they are also amazing, cool, beautiful, and fantastic. See Example.
Bob- "Isn't Lauren awesome?!"
Jim- "Of course! She's the most amazing person in the world! How couldn't she be?"
