Lanty FlatMy Person Derek found this.  It is from a book.  It seems obvious to me.  We cats can already see things that you human people can’t.  You people don’t have very good eyes.  Maybe from reading too many books. I prefer to lie down flat on books.  But maybe this will help you human people.

“A very elderly woman she was, frail as paper in the hospital bed.  She seemed three-fourths detached from the world already.  There is so much to delight us in this world of matter — to tire of it seems ungrateful to me, but she told me she’d had all the pain she could eat and would pass from this banquet to a better one.”

And:

The world of the spirit and the world of matter exist side by side, like two sides of a wall; the gods are not far away in some other space, but in this very one, continuously, just around some strange corner of perception.  A presence as pervasive and invisible as sunlight on skin, as though one stood naked and blindfolded in an unimaginable noon.

We are all, every living one of us, doorways between the two realms, that of matter that gives us birth, and that of spirit into which we are born in death.

– Lois McMaster Bujold, “The Paladin of Souls”
