Many of you have had periods of solitude, but have you truly been present with yourselves?
You can be alone and be completely distracted. You can be in a crowd and be completely present with yourself. Presence is simply a space of profound connection and acceptance with yourself exactly as you are.
Have you been in true acceptance of who you really are? Can you just be without the need to adjust a single thing about yourself? Do you meditate with the goal of acknowledging the fullness of who you are or to escape yourself and your life?
Full presence with yourself is an incredibly sacred and healing space. It doesn’t need to be a long process. Even short moments of true presence with yourself is as potent and moving as any other connection with a higher being. It is healing and transformative because it heals the sense of separation you feel when you are yearning for the higher vibrational energies of Home where you are seen, accepted, and loved exactly as you are. It allows you to be both the love and the beloved, and that is a powerful experience, indeed. ~Archangel Gabriel through Shelley Young
