Presence and self awarenes
As I was driving yesterday I realized something. Presence and recognizing you conscience self are two different things. But you can not embrace your conscience self without being in the present moment.
When you stop long enough to experience the fact that you are a unique creation of God, that is living and breathing in this very moment, it is a door way to connectivity to God. I find myself in this space more often that I used to in the past as I start allowing God to change my mental processes about Him, others and myself.
This is truly a great journey.
