Musings on the Middle East
Live always at the edge of poetic possibilty, even in the face of severe prose. - Walter Bruggemann
From a Thin Place
Journal. Diary. Copious Notes. Musings. Thought. Reflection. Observation. Welcome to A Thin Place. All of this, maybe more, is a record of my year in Jerusalem - the thinest place on earth.
A "thin place", in Celtic tradition,
is someplace, anyplace, where the
spiritual world and the mortal world come so close to one another that you almost see, definitely feel, and maybe even can touch the presence of God. I suspect that my life in Israel will contain moments of clarity just like this. The opaque will become translucent, the hazy clear, and God's presence a reality.

Great photos and a great post.
Good one and timely for this P word!
A momentous day for sure. Good choice. I invite you to come get a taste of my Pouch Potatoes. -- Margy
Perfect topic seen in many posts today--even those not doing the ABCs!
this is the perfect post for this weeks letter. I really appreciate seeing the newspapers. Believe it or not, I didn't get one today! Thanks!
Mazal tov to America and the world!
O happy day!
Love your red white and blue post.
We are all in a wonderful, euphoric mood. However Obama has to do a hell of a job, for Bush left us in a chaotic mess.
Thanks for your visit!
I also had P for President but mine was a bit cheeky!
Good choice, we hope in round 4, the post: "C" is for "Change".
Good one. Who'd you vote for? ( Just kidding). Why is it a social stigma whether you vote for one or another?
