The Gift of Presence...


I think that the moments that I am Present are gifts from the Gods.
If I say, "I want to be present now," it is because 
the moment was given to me. 
It was a gift.
One may say that this is a result of one's own efforts.
Yes, however, it is still a gift.

Now, I realized that at those particular moments when the present is
given to me are the moments when I can "do." 
Being aware (present) I am given three choices:

1. I can unwrap the gift and enjoy it now.
2. I can put it away and unwrap and enjoy it later.
3. Reject it all together (forget about this one!)

I know that "later" will never come. 
I know that I must enjoy (extend) the moment now. 
Certain opportunities never repeat.
