qohelet.

got a few things...

first have a look at this blog entry titled 'one cup, one life' - pretty special.

second, this week I've briefly started to look at the book of Qohelet (aka Ecclesiastes). The book in itself is confusing - however I've only briefly looked at it... So far this theme has stood out to me:

...And I set my mind to know wisdom and to know madness and folly; I realised this is also striving after the wind. Because in much wisdom there is much grief and increasing knowledge results in increasing pain. (Ecc 1:17-18)

Knowing stuff is hard!

One of mt collegues who's currently in seminary today said that where he comes from there are many broken and bending roads, and you can tell who the drunk drivers are because they drive in a straight line down the roads, whereas the sober drivers follow the broken path.

It was an interesting observation. Can that be applied as a metaphor to life?
