emo
I'm emo all the time - especially in light of all the things that are going on around me, sometimes life seems purposeless, the work that I do in school notwithstanding, and a lot of times even the small little pieces of service that I do in church seem pointless. I think what's most real to me is the transience of our world - how everything comes and goes so fast.. I feel like I'm already in my mid-life crisis.Reading Ecclesiastes 1-2 made me become a fan of Solomon. He's emo, too! He says a lot of things I think about, about how toil is meaningless, wisdom is meaningless, pleasure is meaningless. What then is meaningful?

ReplyDeletePeople think Ecclesiastes is a "emo" book, but it's not, at least for me. More than anything else, it puts the really meaningful things into perspective while everything else "is meaningless" as Solomon puts it.
