THERE'S NOTHING NEW UNDER THE SUN!
THERE'S NOTHING NEW UNDER
THE SUN!
The thing that hath been, it is that which
shall be and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no
new thing under the sun. You will all agree that one is left gasping for air,
after reading these wise words by King Solomon!
It really doesn't leave you with much hope:
after all, Solomon was the wisest and the wealthiest King of his times. Kings, Emperors
and the Wealthy travelled to Jerusalem, just to listen to Solomon's Wisdom.
These admirers pampered Solomon with all
kinds of expensive gifts, so much so, the King had to build new storage to keep
his ever-growing assets!
After experimenting with life in all
aspects of infatuation and pomposity: the wise King discovered that everything
was nothing but vanity of vanities!
There's nothing new under the sun! What has
been in life, will be again and again. What has been done in the past, shall be
done again today and tomorrow!
While it remains true that each individual
has unique sets of fingerprints and exclusive personalized body scent: there's
someone strikingly identical to you somewhere around the World!
You'll be pleasantly surprised that while
you thought there was only Unique You in these Earthly Plains: you have missed your
Other Self in public by hair's wisp! There's Two of You, Self and Yours in this
jagged World.
Sometimes, I stare at the mirror and find
myself disagreeing with the Man inside the mirror. The guy does everything I do
in perfect syncopation: hey, this is better than synchronized swimming!
I see you my Identical Twin and thanks for visiting
the Me in You! We both smiled and waved goodbye as we stepped in sync and back
to the World of our Reality!
There's nothing new under the sun! What has
been in life, will be again and again. What has been done in the past, shall be
done again today and tomorrow!
In the day of prosperity be joyful, but in
the day of adversity consider, God also hath set the one over against the
other, to the end that man should find nothing after him.
All things have I seen in the days of my
vanity: there is a just man that perisheth in his righteousness, and there is a
wicked man that prolongeth his life in his wickedness.
You can live in the same house for fifty
years but, you can never step over your footprints twice! Amazing, isn't it?
Vanity of vanities, Life is!
