Tonight we go for dinner again at 4ever29's. We had an amazing time with them on Tuesday night. She spent all day preparing a Jewish meal so we could see what kind of food most might experience during Hanukkah. The Challah and Latkes and Brisket were all really good. It's really cool to try new foods and to try and put yourself into someone elses shoes. What is it like to celebrate Hanukkah and not to know Jesus? I mean, we didn't even make it a completely traditional thing. It was really about the amazing food. Have you tried something new before and been pleasantly surprised? Is there a religion out there that you admire for a certain reason? Ok, that sounds like a weird question - I mean..those who are Muslim don't like that we have different translations of our Bible, because to them that means it's been tainted somehow - the meaning is not as true as the original. The concept behind that makes sense...and how when you go to a Mosque - no Quran ever touches the floor or comes close to being at ground level. I think we need to treat the Word of God with respect, but also to be able to understand it and most importantly - to read it. I'm not sure where that sermon came from...
Anyways, Nate's been at a course all week and I've been getting up at 6:45 to drive him and his friend to the train. Then I pick them up anywhere between 4:45 and 5:45 depending on which train they catch. We actually had his friend and her son over for dinner last night. It was great. And like I said we're out again tonight - makes a woman tired. Jeepers.
