Now that is quite a wild statement. But think about it for a moment…or two. If our present moment is pre-sent, who sent it? And why should I care? I have enough to think about without questioning where the present came from and who sent it. Good grief!

Though it feels like a silly conundrum of confusion, it is really a profound thought, which if pondered for awhile will lead to a liberating revelation.

We are living on the surface of a infinitely enormous mystery. Our bodies alone are so complex we haven’t even begun to figure them out or identify all the components. Each one of us in a magnificent universe unto ourselves. We are actually a hologram and everything we experience is a holographic image as well. As you know they can clone something from just one cell. This in itself is mind boggling.

What does this mean in your everyday life? It means that if you live your life as if this material world is all there is; you will be very confused and discouraged most of the time. Remember, the material world around us is only about 1% of reality. The remaining 99% is unseen by human eyes. Can you imagine deciding anything in your life with only 1% of the necessary information? I think not. And yet, we do it all the time.

Experts tell us that we only use about 10% of our brain power. The other 90% is just sitting there doing nothing. Why is that!? I would think that would really upset people. I would think they would want to know immediately, if not sooner, how to access that 90% so their life could be more manageable and enjoyable. However, for some unknown reason, we just go on with life as if we never even heard that incredible information.

Okay now. Back to the present. We hear a lot lately about being present, living in Presence, being here now, because NOW is all there is. But the NOW is a product of the past moment. If you were sad a moment ago, you are probably sad now. Therefore, you sent yourself a sad thought to be experienced in the future, which is now the present. So your “present” has been “pre-sent”. Get it?

We can have an incredibly rich life if we challenge ourselves to use the 90% of our minds to consciously create our future “present” moments by visioning in the current present what we want to feel and experience in the future present. This is the awesome gift of free will that distinguishes us from other species. We can co-create our future by choosing what we think about in the present!

Proverbs says that “As a man thinks in his heart, so is he”. It isn’t what other people think about you that determines who you are. What others think of you is none of your business! It’s their business. No one can make you think anything you don’t want or choose to think. Nor can you make anyone else think something they don’t want to think.

So why do we spend so much time and effort struggling to control others and our material world? If it is a losing game, why play it? Good question, don’t you think? Well, I believe we keep playing it because we are choosing to use the 10% of our minds to figure out the 1% of reality. Real life is going on subliminally in the 90% of our minds in the 99% of reality!

It does sound crazy doesn’t it? That’s because it is! Now that the whole world is turned inside out and everyone can see behind the curtain and they can see the emperor has no clothes, people are freaking out. “What in the world can we do?!” Nothing! We can only change our world by changing our perception using the 90%.

Ernest Holmes who wrote The Science of Mind said, “Change your thinking; change your life”. And he was right. Our thoughts are the steering wheel of our life vehicle. It’s time to wake up and enjoy the Present you Pre-sent yourself consciously.
