It has best sunsets that I have ever seen. The area where the mountains meet the sky is really beautiful. All I could think about when I was there was how beautiful the world is, and how we have to protect the beauty that places like Lake Tahoe hold. ]]> 2021-01-22 18:27:21 UTC https://padlet.com/mrkohut/kizxs3uibyw6rpdl1617313289/wish/1115332148 https://padlet.com/mrkohut/kizxs3uibyw6rpdl1617313289/wish/1115332152 Personally, I can imagine some thin places for me to be, a combination of both really. Places such as being physical, and emotional. My own imagination and dreams, as well as real-life places in the world. The world can be able to offer us many amazing scenery that we might not get to see most of the time, but we know that it is around us and is with us. I mainly have one specific place, which is my --- bedroom. I do a lot of my thinking and personal thoughts that I only share to myself and think about. It allows me to connect even deeper with myself than people truly only see on the outside when I am around others. As is my dreams/imagination allows me to further my connection to God as he has inspired me to do so, as I can basically talk to him and ask him about anything.]]> 2021-01-22 18:27:21 UTC https://padlet.com/mrkohut/kizxs3uibyw6rpdl1617313289/wish/1115332152 https://padlet.com/mrkohut/kizxs3uibyw6rpdl1617313289/wish/1115332157 A thin place for me is my bedroom I can just sit back and let all my thoughts hit me and i am able to relax the most.]]> 2021-01-22 18:27:21 UTC https://padlet.com/mrkohut/kizxs3uibyw6rpdl1617313289/wish/1115332157 https://padlet.com/mrkohut/kizxs3uibyw6rpdl1617313289/wish/1115332162 I would argue that a thin place for me is not a physical one, but rather a mental one.  For me, a thin place would be dreams.  The Bible has multiple instances where God appears to people in their dreams.  Now, I'm not claiming to be interacting with God in my dreams or anything.  But I do think that the boundaries of Heaven and Earth are thinner there.  For example, how the video today noted that people visit cemetaries on All Hallow's Eve because it is a thin place they can be with their loved ones. In dreams, we have the ability to interact in these same scenarios with deceased loved ones. Whether you believe they're real or not is up to you.]]> 2021-01-22 18:27:21 UTC https://padlet.com/mrkohut/kizxs3uibyw6rpdl1617313289/wish/1115332162 https://padlet.com/mrkohut/kizxs3uibyw6rpdl1617313289/wish/1115332168 One of the thinnest places I have encountered is Central Park. My church's choir loft is one for me, too.

Sunsets are my thin place because I love the colors and they remind me of God's love. They help me to remember of God's presence and His beautiful creations, and make me feel that Heaven and Earth are coming closer together.]]> 2021-01-22 18:27:21 UTC https://padlet.com/mrkohut/kizxs3uibyw6rpdl1617313289/wish/1115332173 https://padlet.com/mrkohut/kizxs3uibyw6rpdl1617313289/wish/1115332180 thin places for me are my friends, family, sports, traveling, my dogs and just any activities with my friends because were always happy together. As well as field hockey practices and just everyone working hard for one ultimate goal.]]> 2021-01-22 18:27:21 UTC https://padlet.com/mrkohut/kizxs3uibyw6rpdl1617313289/wish/1115332180 https://padlet.com/mrkohut/kizxs3uibyw6rpdl1617313289/wish/1115332188 I would say that some of my thin places would be places that I travel with my family, my lake house and my house because I am most comfortable here and it makes me happy and I get to enjoy what is around me.]]> 2021-01-22 18:27:21 UTC https://padlet.com/mrkohut/kizxs3uibyw6rpdl1617313289/wish/1115332188 https://padlet.com/mrkohut/kizxs3uibyw6rpdl1617313289/wish/1115332198 A thin place for me is more of an atmosphere than a place. Anytime I find myself in stillness or contemplation, especially in front of the Blessed Sacrament, that is a thin place for me. I also find that Mass, especially candle lit ones while the rest of the world is dark, is a thin place for me too. ]]> 2021-01-22 18:27:21 UTC https://padlet.com/mrkohut/kizxs3uibyw6rpdl1617313289/wish/1115332198 https://padlet.com/mrkohut/kizxs3uibyw6rpdl1617313289/wish/1115332212 thin places for me are late at night or early in the morning when your by yourself or at the same times of day when you the only person still at a job or at school or in a store]]> 2021-01-22 18:27:21 UTC https://padlet.com/mrkohut/kizxs3uibyw6rpdl1617313289/wish/1115332212 https://padlet.com/mrkohut/kizxs3uibyw6rpdl1617313289/wish/1115332224 An example of a thin place for me would be my grandfather's house. His house is a small cottage, and situated right next to a river. It looks very beautiful in the evening, seeing the sunset reflect off the water. You can really marvel at God's creation there. His house is a cozy little place that I always enjoy spending time in. ]]> 2021-01-22 18:27:21 UTC https://padlet.com/mrkohut/kizxs3uibyw6rpdl1617313289/wish/1115332224 https://padlet.com/mrkohut/kizxs3uibyw6rpdl1617313289/wish/1115332236 My thin place is when I am on vacation and my whole family is there and we just hang out for the week with no obligations or school or anything. We really just enjoy each other's presence at the beach and it is a much needed getaway]]> 2021-01-22 18:27:21 UTC https://padlet.com/mrkohut/kizxs3uibyw6rpdl1617313289/wish/1115332236 https://padlet.com/mrkohut/kizxs3uibyw6rpdl1617313289/wish/1115332244 A few thin places for me would have to be my bedroom and my imagination where I am let alone just to sit and think. Another thin place would have to be the car. I drive all the time alone to school and to basketball and I just listen to music and think.]]> 2021-01-22 18:27:21 UTC https://padlet.com/mrkohut/kizxs3uibyw6rpdl1617313289/wish/1115332244 https://padlet.com/mrkohut/kizxs3uibyw6rpdl1617313289/wish/1115332253 A mental thin place for me would probably be a perfect field of green grass surrounded by mountains. If I could compare it to anything it would be a photo called Bliss by Charles O'Rear which is actually the Microsoft XP wallpaper.]]> 2021-01-22 18:27:21 UTC https://padlet.com/mrkohut/kizxs3uibyw6rpdl1617313289/wish/1115332253 https://padlet.com/mrkohut/kizxs3uibyw6rpdl1617313289/wish/1115332267 For my thin place it would be somewhere I can clear my head like a beach or my cabin]]> 2021-01-22 18:27:21 UTC https://padlet.com/mrkohut/kizxs3uibyw6rpdl1617313289/wish/1115332267 https://padlet.com/mrkohut/kizxs3uibyw6rpdl1617313289/wish/1115332274 A thin place for me is Mount Pisgah in North Carolina. I went on a trip there with my parents a few years ago and we went to the top of the mountain. It was the most beautiful view I had ever seen. My mind was cleared of any other thoughts or anxieties and I sat at the top with my dad and we admired the beauty. ]]> 2021-01-22 18:27:22 UTC https://padlet.com/mrkohut/kizxs3uibyw6rpdl1617313289/wish/1115332274 https://padlet.com/mrkohut/kizxs3uibyw6rpdl1617313289/wish/1115332281 A thin place for me in my life would be my grandparents cabin down in Hocking Hills. There the beauty and nature and the quietness of the country makes me feel really close to God and the kingdom of Heaven. Any chance I get I love going down there with family and friends.  ]]> 2021-01-22 18:27:22 UTC https://padlet.com/mrkohut/kizxs3uibyw6rpdl1617313289/wish/1115332281 https://padlet.com/mrkohut/kizxs3uibyw6rpdl1617313289/wish/1115332291 Thin places for me would be the presence of my family and friends. Other thin places would be Hampton bays and Colorado. The Hamptons beautiful beaches and Colorado's mountains. I stop thinking about other distractions when I am with these people or at these places and enjoy the moment.]]> 2021-01-22 18:27:22 UTC https://padlet.com/mrkohut/kizxs3uibyw6rpdl1617313289/wish/1115332291
