Presence

All around us people are in the spirit of giving, so in this spirit... the greatest gift you can give to anyone is your presence.

There are a lot of moments when I could be more engaged, turn off my daydreaming, stop checking my phone (why?!) Taking way too much time surfing the Internet, watching shows/videos/etc, reading articles on this and that.  Sure all that stuff is good, but it clutters our mind with more chatter and stops us from engaging, making it harder to processes information in a mindful way.

Taking time to be in the moment is so important and we have to be so deliberate about it because it's so easy not to be present.


Be engaged!  Be in the moment! Notice the color, the smell, the feel, the sounds, the smell..... the world has so many gifts and once in a lifetime moments for us to experience.


Put down your phone, shut off your computer and take a look around.


Try it out, you might be surprised by the results.
