This friend of mine was the one I had drinks with – several – on a Tuesday night He said things that surprised me. I am a man who does not write much, and therefore it is easy to scandalize.
Last night for example, He asked me if I believed in hell. I answered no.
“Then,” he said to me, “you don't believe in God's justice.”
“I trust more in His mercy,” I answered.
“Because it suits you,” he said. Preachers are the same: they talk more about hell than Heaven because their business is more about fear than love.
He added:
–If man is not afraid then he will not believe. If man does not believe then he will not be afraid.
I've had two, maybe three. So, I don't fully understand my friend's pun. I remained silent at that time. I've learned that often the silence you harbor holds you back.
See you tomorrow!…
