"A common question often asked is: Is there a veil between the physical and spiritual worlds?
Standing in Iceland, amid the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates that are slowly pulling away from each other made my existence feel small, enchanting, and surreal. The enormity and immensity reminded me how powerful and magnificent nature displays itself visually. The intensity of power made me feel connected to a force beyond tremendous. I was unsure of what makes a thin place, but could all that be what creates the thinness?
Sometimes emotions can create thin places too. Grief is one of those places. Grief is a powerful emotion that cuts through our neuroanatomy making it hard to tell where the earth ends and where heaven begins. It's where the living and the dead can feel one another's love and can sense one another's presence.
Many of us have attended a deathbed vigil where we have witnessed the sight of someone we love talking to an empty space. This scene can vary from amusement, comfort, or horror."
