Why aren't certain parts of the book covered in his book, "Living Life Backwards"? Most of Ch 5 is missing, all of 6, all of 8 and all of 10... is there a reason for this?
My Sunday school is teaching through the book so I looked it up. I've always hated nostalgia. History ended before you were born and you missed it so worship my youth! I've heard 4 generations wax nostalgic and the speech is always the same. "When we're gone no one will remember....." someone older than you is annoying, someone your own age is surreal and someone younger is ridiculous. Calling it escapism is very insightful.
Everything is fleeting and that includes wisdom ,pleasures, folly , toil ,advancement ,riches because they do not last ; but everything is beautiful in its time. Make the most of everything while they last and do the right thing because in the end there is God to whom we must give an account of our lives O LORD , what is man that you care for him , the son of man that you think of him ? Man is like a breath ; his days are like a fleeting shadow . But God has loved us with an everlasting love and is constant in his affection for us , and if the lord marked our guilt who would survive , but with the Lord there is mercy and fullness of redemption and that is why we revere Him and above all God wants us to pray for all because He wants to save all . Solomon , David , Jeremiah and Paul are the authors of the above quotes of Scripture that give us a more total picture of God and his relationship with man and vice versa
