Life is vanity meaning

  The way and manner people do hold onto life, makes me wonder if they have forgotten that life will one day end its journey six feet under. They fight and boost for their achievements, the materialistic things they have, and the power they might have acquired for themselves but still they do not have possession of their lives. Psalms 144:4

  Then what is the essence of living life when everything surrounding life and life itself is vanity? Life is not accomplished by living in luxury or poverty, or neither is life favoritism, but life is meant to live up to its purpose so that when life is over those purposes will live forever. 

   Our evil desires has clouded our sense of reasoning that our center of purpose is focused on pursuing vain things, which in our quest for it done a lot of diabolical things against God and fellow humans for something that is not worth risking for eternity. 

    There is no single thing about life that will last forever, but how well a person lives his life determines his afterlife reward.
