Life.....

Maybe I have written on this. Maybe I have not. So many SNL over the years. Solomon. Proverbs. Ecclesiastes. My Grade 6 CL class . Sunrise. Noon. Sunset. I notice that Solomon can actually be quite negative at times. Like, best not to have been born. So to, Job. Then I had lovely CL class today, and enjoyed the "silly " questions. It is both a nice and sad situation. Some youth will strive ahead and have many problems in life. Lovely youth camp. How many youth over 27 years. Many hundred. How many last? Just a few. Life is very difficult. Solomon says why work hard, then you die. Someone else gets the benefit of your labour. Your reward? Death. Meaningless. Pointless. Youth have dreams. Few reach them. Pain, toil, suffering, in this "miserable" life. Spots or sprinkling of joy, sprinkling.  The canvas is mainly dark than light. All feel it. Few have bliss. But lovely to see young ones learning and learning. Will it benefit them? Who knows. Most likely short term, for a year or so. Then lost and forgotten in the archives of the mind. So, why not go for Song of Songs? Why not? What do I lose? Church? It's ok. It will be lost one day anyway. School? No. Many immoral anyway so I just join the club  school survives. Church dies. Its ok. Plenty of other churches around. So why not SoS? Thought about it. But for a few seconds. I can't. Just can't. Don't mind ruining myself. Close to sunset. But I do mind ruining the fawn. Just can't do it. Just can't. Love Jesus too much. But the fight is there. Its real. So I enjoy the CL. But sad also what lies ahead. All I can say is, you may not love yourself, but you love others more than yourself and don't want to see their character ruined via compromise. We work for what? For whom? For someone else. We fight. Resist SoS for whom? For someone else. We lose. We are in pain. But somewhere in eternity it's the right choice. Self denial   . Misery. Meaningless. Jesus.
