I love having these discussions but they do give my brain a workout. And this morning not only was it a topic that involved some thinking, it was all in French! My brain feels like it ran a half marathon.
I think I need a nap.

L'avenir
I love having theological and philosophical discussions, and this morning, we had a great one. We talked about "l'avenir", the future. We read some quotes by philosophers and writers such as Jean-Paul Sartre, Albert Camus, and Albert Einstein. We talked about having control over somethings in our lives, but not others. We talked about the will of God and choice. We talked about who knows the future and about not worrying about the future. We talked about the certainty of some things, such as the return of Christ, and the uncertainty of others, such as what will I be doing in 5 years?
