People also leave presence in a place even when they are no longer there.

Physical presence provides chemical, relational, psychological and physiological effects that virtual relationships cannot. Our brains change in the presence of another person and their behavior.

Absence sharpens love, presence strengthens it.

When you love someone, the best thing you can offer is your presence. How can you love if you are not there?

I sometimes ask people, 'Can you be aware of your own presence? Not the thoughts that you're having, not the emotions that you're having, but the very presence of your very being?' You become aware of your own presence by sensing the entire energy field in your body that is alive. And that is the totality of your presence.

I know that I have a face, a look, people aren't used to seeing. A presence.

My presence speaks volumes before I say a word.

'Presence of God' is really that understanding that sometimes when you step out of your own shoes and just open your ears and listen to what's going on around you, you get answers to the questions you were asking.

When you take your attention into the present moment, a certain alertness arises. You become more conscious of what's around you, but also, strangely, a sense of presence that is both within and without.

I'm very much a bit of a ghost presence.
