words of the Teacher, son of David

Study, Work, Read, Pay, Buy, Go, Stay, Clean, Call, Plan, Talk, Meet, Write, Finish, Start, Move, Drive, Cook, Prepare, Blah Blah Etc. Etc.

There's Always So Much To Be Done.
'I denied myself nothing my eyes desired;
I refused my heart no pleasure.
My heart took delight in all my work,
and this was the reward for all my labor.

Yet when I surveyed all that my hands had done
and what I had toiled to achieve,
everything was meaningless, a chasing after the wind;
nothing was gained under the sun.'

'"Meaningless! Meaningless!"
says the Teacher.
"Utterly meaningless!
Everything is meaningless."'
