verses read: Ecclesiastes 2:12-16
prayer: 5 minutes
Wisdom and folly are meaningless. What’s the point of having so much wisdom if at the end of the day those who are wise and those who are foolish will both meet the same fate? All will die! That’s the main thrust of the passage. And it is a highly philosophical one if you ask me.
New year’s eve. I remember this day exactly a year ago. Not sure if it was something I would like to remember. A year on and so many things have changed. This year has been a whirlwind year for me. So many things were done; yet so many things were left undone; a lot of loose ends. It will be a year that I will long look back and have painful memories of.
My back is still aching. Though a little less than yesterday, I still have problems with my mobility. The pain should clear in a few days, at most a week. Not going to the gym this week honestly makes me feel quite lethargic.
Have to be in church in an hour’s time. Got some long meeting. Going to leave my laptop at home for a change; going there to listen rather than to speak. Going to be a long day; and tomorrow is going to be another long one as well. But well; there has been no better way to start a year than to start it with the presence of fellow believers.
Next year is going to be an important year for me. Will be entering the workforce. That is major change in lifestyle for me. To be almost financially independent and all. Well, time will just go on. It is how we make us of the time that counts I guess. After all, at the end of the day, we meet the same fate as everyone else. It’s where we go after we die that will really make the difference.
