Abstract
Presence. I think that is what my whole thesis is truly about. That is what I have finally
come to at the end of this year and a half process: presence. The reason why I am introducing
this story with my ultimate finding is because I hope you can be presence, to the best of your
capacity, in order to soak in the power that lies within and between these pages. Presence and
present are not to be confused with one another, for they are entirely different. Being present
means that someone is physically there —i t is what you say after your name is said during roll
call. Sure, you are present, but are you pressence? Presence for you is both similar and different
than how presence is for me. Presence knows no bounds and is hard to describe, especially with
typed words. However, within this chapter and throughout the rest of my thesis, I will try to
create a foundation in which presence can be understood.
