Presence is the secret of finally knowing you are home for good. Enlightenment means light entering the darkness. Presence is awareness that blows away the illusions and concepts that formerly kept us trapped in the darkness of separation. It just sees 'what is-as is,' and all the concepts around what it is supposed to be just evaporate. Whatever is happening, whether pleasant like the taste of good food, or unpleasant like self judgment, or how you feel about just being present instead of being productive or at least useful.
Presence shines on all that is happening and knows that all is well.
We can't direct Presence to any particular aspect of our soap opera because that would interrupt the flow and would be directed by the mind rather than by the Witness. Presence just shines on all of life as our infinite, innate wisdom presents it to us. Presence is all encompassing and serves as its own reward. Presence is the overall relaxing into the active embrace of life as it is, and as it presents itself. Presence is beyond questions, doubts and striving.
