Recently been reading books by Philosophy geniuses Thomas Cathcart & Daniel Klein, who explore philosophical ideas through jokes, which is ridiculously entertaining.

Moses, Jesus, and a bearded old man are playing golf. Moses drives a long one, which lands on the fairway but rolls directly into the pond. Moses raises his club, parts the water, and the ball rolls safely to the other side.
Jesus also hits a long one toward the same pond, but just as it was about to land in the center, it hovers above the surface. Jesus casually walks out on the pond and chips it onto the green.
The bearded old man's drive hits a fence and bounces onto the street, where it caroms off an oncoming truck and back onto the fairway. It's headed directly for the pond, but it lands on a lily pad, where a frog sees it and snatches it into his mouth. An eagle swoops down, grabs the frog, and flies away. As the eagle and frog pass over the green, the frog drops the ball, and it lands in the cup for a hole-in-one.
Moses turns to Jesus and says "I hate playing with your dad".

Bracing ourselves,
For the future filled with as much uncertainty as promise.
