A place can be something we can touch and see, but it can also be something we imagine. In the absence of time and space, we can still understand what a ‘place’ is. We all have happy places that are just in our thoughts. The virtual world is physical compared to our imagination. One can argue we can imagine our happy place, because we have experience with time and space or a 'place outside of our mind'. I really liked this episode.
