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.

LOVE THIS!
I've always been intrigued by the term 'brownstone' because the houses hardly ever look brown!
Steep steps but beautiful houses.
Excellent photo....they are so beaufitul!
These buildings look so beautiful, and yet I always wonder how people manage with all those steps. How do get a buggy or a wheelchair up them?
I could move in anytime. Lovely B/ Tyra
Great photo...love the lines...and it makes me miss the city...
Nice architecture and great photo! =o)
Fantastic photo! I live in upstate NY in the Catskills and I love Brooklyn, is such a great place.
Thank you from the ABC Wed. team for sharing.
Oo, Beautiful Brownstone Buildings.
Great colours. Love this picture!
I love these - they remind me of the 'townhouses' in San Francisco. They always look so homey...Lovely photo!
The colors remind me of SF.
