As a footnote to this scripture:
How impressive throughout Ecclesiastes is the evidence that, while Solomon is doing his utmost to prove that life is futile and not worth living, the Holy Spirit is using him to show that these conclusions are the tragic effect of living "under the sun"--ignoring the Lord, dwelling away from God the Father, oblivious of the Holy Spirit--and yet face to face with the mysteries of life and nature!
(from the footnotes of the Amplified Bible)

Solomon as the teacher, the King in Jerusalem, relating his experiences of happenings in life with those Godly things. Without God life is Meaningless, Vanity in another version, which means empty, or without permanent value. Thanks Mel for reminding me what is important.

And this is why this is one of my favorite books. The end of the matter is what the whole book is building to: A life with purpose.
Amen,
