For me, it is being born, living it and then the end of it. How you live it is up to you.

Vanity is how Ecclesiastes describes it. Meaningless. How do you differentiate yourself from the other 8 billion people on the planet? We're almost as common as ants and our passage here will be forgotten within a couple generations of our passing.

People, unlike ants, are created in God's image.

There are around 20 quadrillion ants on earth. That is the same as 1,000,000 billions. There is only around 8 billion people on earth.

I know. I just think there's an amazing number of ants. That many of any animal, even when tiny, is impressive. The biomass of ants is phenomenal.

I think being a parent is as good as it gets on this plane.. and knowing God. Sharing that with children to give them a foundation.

Work get a head, raise and teach my children to be good people. Now at an older age, help those that need help and be kind to everyone else.
