On the border, we often talk about feeling like our lives here are out of time with our friends/families lives back wherever we come from, somewhat removed from reality, or maybe more appropriately, part of a different reality. Which is why it can seem so bizarre when the two overlap, like during my family's recent visit.
But maybe that sense of disconnect isn't because of distance, but because "Our world may be a giant hologram".......
Totally mindblowing.

(Disclaimer: your brain will likely hurt after reading this article, but its still worth it)
"Our everyday experience might itself be a holographic projection of physical processes that take place on a distant, 2D surface."
ReplyDeleteSo cool, Jen! Thanks for pointing that out!
I hope your family visit is going well. We miss you back here!
