520 0 _aThe good life: who doesn't want to experience it? Success, fame, wealth, health--and good companions to share it all. Ecclesiastes is the mortician of the success fantasy. Where do we find that which fulfills us and finds the most valuable elements of life? Ecclesiastes tells us how to penetrate beneath the shimmering promises of a commercialized and celebrity culture to find the joy of living in everyday life. All our striving, sweat and tears, our greatest achievements, all finally wind up in the grave. So how should we live? What should we strive to do and be as time and life continues to flow by, year by year, week by week. Ecclesiastes gives us insight and answers.
