A-HA MOMENTS:  To hold presence is to become a oneness with everything. PRACTICAL WISDOM:  Develop a practice of presence as you take stock in what is important right now; and as you allow everything else to be – to be right here for you when you are ready to return to it. Then slowly everything gives away as you focus on the presence of this moment.   <a href='https://youtu.be/EGsWfrhTyZ0'>Watch the video on P R E S E N C E</a> in this week's WISDOM Note:  <p> </p> <p> </p> 💜 <p> </p> *If you have a question or if you would like my guidance or help, please reach out to me.  You can find me at: <a href='https://www.
