Christmas is approaching and today is Sunday morning. I am sat facing outside and sipping a cup of coffee. It is warm and nice inside. It is 12 o’clock.

Somehow my attention diverted to the window. I can see the rails of a balcony but nothing beyond that. I know that there is light but I can’t see the sun. Even more interesting is that I can’t see any of the things that I used to see through the window such as the tall towers, the shops and the hills.

Nothing is visible.

THE OUTSIDE IS NOT VISIBLE BUT I know IT IS THERE.

It is not naturally possible for all those things to disappear overnight in uneventful way without locals knowing.

Considering all the facts I have, I am somehow confident that  all these things are still present beyond the window even though I do not see them now.

Hence, it is undeniable that there is a barrier between I and what I used to see. The barrier could be mist, cloud or dust. This barrier is like a veil.

For me to be able to see what is beyond, the veil has to be lifted.

As the veil became thinner, I began to see what I used to see and know.

As you may appreciate in the above picture, I began to visualize the world that I knew and the world I was familiar with. I now just about see the shops.

Likewise, the true world that we know and came from is hidden from us. We know that there is something beyond this physical world but we can’t see it. Our memory of the unseen world is not with us which makes us uncertain and hesitant of its existence. However, somewhere deep inside we wonder if something exists besides what we see in this reality.

As we begin to be curious and explore more, we might just start to understand a little more about the invisible world. However, we always perceive this world that we live in as real and concrete. 

It is thought that the visible world came from the invisible world. Hence, the invisible, which is a thin veil away, has to be more real than the visible.
