Vanity of Vanities.

Hey.

You know, life is short and nothing under the sun satisfies our cravings.

Video games either last a week, so you get the next one or they continue for a very long time so you keep leveling and playing. They don't satisfy your craving for entertainment fully. You play and are entertained until you stop playing or the game is over.

Sin does not satisfy. It may satisfy for a few breif moments, but then you're left in a worse position spiritually and emotionally. After the euphoria of sin you are left with the guilt and shame and self-loathing feelings.

Material possesions do not satisfy. You always want something bigger or better and once you finally have it there is something even more desirable to obtain.

You build these things up in your mind as the best thing ever; you need them. But once you have them its not enough.

Soloman back in his days tried everything under the sun to feed his cravings; women, money, possesions, power. But nothing under the sun could fill these cravings, nothing could satisfy this desire for more.

If we have these cravings, cravings forn control, power, love, escape, justice. Shouldn't there be something that will fill these cravings..?
