I am here- a few weeks ago I was listening to a podcast (I cannot recall which one) and the guest was sharing that's the way a friend greets others.  I've lets those words roll around in my mind and spent time practicing that concept since I heard it.  What does it mean and how can we say "I am here" or our own version of it to welcome ourselves and those we are with into present, real conversation.  I also share my brief introduction to my mistress in my former marriage.

“Instead of forcing yourself to feel positive, allow yourself to be present in the now” 

Daniel Mangena

“Wherever you are, be there totally. If you find your here and now intolerable and it makes you unhappy, you have three options: remove yourself from the situation, change it, or accept it totally.” 

Eckhart Tolle
