Presence
“To be present we then appreciate and create: here and now, rippling outward.”
Being present takes a willingness to see what’s around us, the simple and complex, the beautiful and the ugly. Seeing what’s in front of us guides us to what’s to come, opens us up to reality, to what’s possible. By being present we see our choices more clearly, we see and create beauty, building what we wish to see around us and in the future. Presence allows us to see ourselves as a collective, not just as humans, but a part of a whole ecosystem of life. To be present we then appreciate and create: here and now, rippling outward.
