Real presence

Let go of what you want people to think of you, and delight in the refreshing experience of simply being who you are. Allow expectations, agendas, worries and narratives to fall away, and just be you.

Exist fully in the moment, in genuine connection with those around you. Laugh at yourself, with kindness, and with appreciation for your chance to be here.

You’ll gain nothing by striving earnestly to prove something. Instead, enjoy everything by celebrating the humanity of yourself and those who share the moment with you.

Smile because you feel like it, not because you feel you should. Notice how quickly and deeply it heals your spirit.

Life is too precious to waste any of it on worthless pretenses. Each person you encounter is too valuable to be hastily judged or dismissed, and that includes you.

Give to life the soothing joy of being honest, of being authentically alive in your own existence. Experience again and again how sublime and how right such a real presence can be.

— Ralph Marston
