Presence, and all that shit

This whole notion of "Being Present" really isn't all that hard. But it is definitely misunderstood.

"You must be present, young Grashopper."

Well, of course you must. Where the hell else would you be? Unless you happen to gave a time traveling machine, it's unlikely you'd be anywhere other than the present.

Of course, that isn't really what "they" mean. What "they" mean is that you shouldn't allow your mind to go wandering off towards somewhere else, when you are doing something here.

Don't be thinking about the wedding, when you are about to ask for a first date.

Who does that, anyway?
