   “For” is not a very common French word. It means “forum,” as in “un for écclésiastique” (an ecclesiastical forum). There’s also an expression, “dans mon for intérieur” which means something like “deep down” or “in my heart of hearts.”

    I love this—what I believe are the Bahá’í teachings on life after death.
