Be Present…..

Sometimes we miss out on a lot of wonderful things and opportunities in our spiritual, personal as well as business journey because we don’t know how to be present.
We show up physically but our hearts and minds are somewhere else. Sometimes we desire more for ourselves and those we love but we don’t realize that the Holy Spirit is capable of opening our eyes if we can learn to be still and listen.
In your marriage something could be missing and you do not know how to put a finger on it , be PRESENT and listen. What can you give your relationship that you have not given before or more of? What can you stop doing that can be the game changer in your growth or development? What can you start doing that can possibly take you to the next level. if you are not present right now , you cannot see opportunities, you cannot see hope, you cannot see possibilities. It can be scary and painful to really look at ourselves naked in loss, pain and anger and sometimes faithless but if we can allow ourselves just to be present there is more we can achieve.
Being present requires being fully open to change. It requires surrendering to the will of the one who created you and understanding that only by faith and hope can you truly transform and see that which you desire. It also requires desperation . I am believer that when you want something badly, hungry or desperate enough you will fight for it. Without that attitude our attempts to achieve anything will fail.
The Vietnamese Buddhist Monk Thich Nhat Hanh once said “The present moment is filled with joy and happiness. If you are attentive, you will see it”……………….
