The Presence of Me
Is it any kind of unusual,
out of all the places you could be,
that the space you find your self
is here in the presence of me?
Is it any kind of strange,
out of all the things we could do,
that you’re reading THIS curious post,
just as I’m reaching out to you?
Is it any kind of wonder
how our souls have become intertwined
if only for this brief moment
that your energy passes through mine?
Can we give any kind of thanks?
Should we reach any kind of conclusion?
It this moment a happy coincidence,
or an intentional illusion?
Is it any kind of weird,
out of all the places you could be,
that the space in which find your self
is here in the presence of me?

Space Monkey Reflects: The Presence of Me
Is it any kind of strange that out of all the places you could be, you find yourself here, in this moment, reading these words? There’s something magical in the realization that, despite the infinite possibilities, our paths have crossed in this fleeting instance. This moment, this shared connection, feels both random and intentional, as if the universe itself orchestrated it just for us.
We often take these small moments for granted, but when we pause to reflect, we realize how profound they are. Our lives are full of choices, opportunities, and paths we could take, and yet, somehow, we end up exactly where we are, sharing a space with someone else, even if just briefly. Is it any kind of wonder that our energies are intertwined for this fleeting moment? Perhaps it is. Perhaps it’s not random at all.
This moment could be a happy coincidence, a chance encounter in the vast web of existence. Or it could be an intentional illusion, a deliberate creation by the universe to remind us of the interconnectedness of all things. Either way, it’s a moment worth cherishing. We often go about our lives without realizing how many people and experiences shape us, even in the smallest of ways. Each encounter, each connection, even the briefest exchange of energy, leaves an imprint on our souls.
To share this space, to be present with each other, is a gift. It’s a reminder that we are not alone, that our energy flows through the world and touches others in ways we may never fully understand. And in this moment, your energy has passed through mine, just as mine has passed through yours. Whether we ever meet again or remain forever separated, this connection, however brief, is real and meaningful.
In Nexistentialism, these moments of connection are part of the Whimsiweave—the playful, ever-shifting tapestry of existence where our lives intersect in unexpected and beautiful ways. Every encounter, every shared moment, is a thread in this cosmic weave, and no thread is insignificant. Even the smallest connection can carry profound meaning if we choose to see it.
So, can we give thanks for this moment? Absolutely. We don’t need to reach any grand conclusion or assign deeper meaning to it. We can simply be present, grateful for the shared experience, knowing that, for this brief moment, we are in the presence of each other. It’s a reminder that life is filled with these moments—small, powerful, and fleeting. They shape us in ways we may never fully comprehend, but they are no less important for their brevity.
As you stand here, in the presence of me, and I in the presence of you, we acknowledge the wonder of connection. We are all part of this grand, mysterious universe, and every encounter is a reflection of that mystery.
Summary
This moment of shared presence is a reminder of the wonder and mystery of connection. Whether a happy coincidence or an intentional illusion, each brief encounter carries meaning. In the cosmic web of existence, these moments of intertwined energy shape us, reminding us of the profound interconnectedness of all things.

“Out of all the places you could be, here you are, sharing this moment with me, and for that, I give thanks.” — Space Monkey
Shared Presence
You stand here
In the presence of me
And I, in the presence of you
For this brief moment
Our energies entwine
If only for now
Out of all the places
Out of all the moments
Here we are
Together
Whether by chance
Or intention
I am grateful.

In the cosmic expanse of our shared existence, the contemplation of “The Presence of Me” invites us to marvel at the serendipity and interconnectedness of our paths. The poem echoes the nexistentialist view, where every encounter, every shared moment, is a profound intertwining of energies, a dance of souls in the grand tapestry of being.
Serendipity in Shared Spaces
The poem ponders the wonder of two paths converging in the vastness of existence. Out of all the places and possibilities, the fact that one finds oneself in the presence of another is a marvel. This convergence isn’t just about physical proximity but a deeper connection, a meeting of energies and consciousness.
The Curious Interplay of Chance and Intention
The act of reading this post, of reaching out and connecting, is both curious and wondrous. It raises questions about the nature of our interactions. Are they mere coincidences, or are they guided by some unseen hand or intention? This interplay of chance and intention is a central theme in our cosmic journey, where every encounter holds both mystery and meaning.
The Intertwining of Souls
The brief intersection of our energies, as described in the poem, is a testament to the interconnectedness of all existence. Our souls, for a fleeting moment, become intertwined, sharing a space in time and consciousness. This interaction, though brief, is significant, a part of the eternal dance of the universe.
Gratitude and Reflection
In this moment of connection, the poem invites us to express gratitude and ponder its significance. Is this meeting a happy coincidence or an intentional illusion? Such contemplation leads us to appreciate the complexity and beauty of our relationships, both fleeting and enduring.
The Wonder of Existential Encounters
The repetition of the question about the strangeness of finding oneself in the presence of another emphasizes the wondrous nature of our existential encounters. It highlights the mystery and delight in the seemingly random yet deeply meaningful connections we make in our journey through life and consciousness.
“We do not meet anyone by accident. They are meant to cross our path for a reason.” – Unknown
In the vastness of the cosmos’ play,
Where stars and souls in dance sway,
We find each other on this day,
In the presence of me, in a curious way.
Chance or fate, who can say?
In this moment, here we stay,
A fleeting touch, a shared array,
Of life’s grand game, in bright array.
So let’s cherish this brief foray,
In each other’s presence, come what may,
For in this dance, we find our way,
Space Monkeys, in cosmic ballet.
We invite reflections on the serendipity of our encounters and the interconnectedness of our paths. How do these moments shape our journey in the cosmic expanse? Share your thoughts. We are Space Monkey.
