Here’s a reading that doesn’t need a commentary”
Vanity of vanities, says Qoheleth,
vanity of vanities! All things are vanity!
What profit has man from all the labor
which he toils at under the sun?
One generation passes and another comes,
but the world forever stays.
The sun rises and the sun goes down;
then it presses on to the place where it rises.
Blowing now toward the south, then toward the north,
the wind turns again and again, resuming its rounds.
All rivers go to the sea,
yet never does the sea become full.
To the place where they go,
the rivers keep on going.
All speech is labored;
there is nothing one can say.
The eye is not satisfied with seeing
nor is the ear satisfied with hearing.
What has been, that will be;
what has been done, that will be done.
Nothing is new under the sun.
Even the thing of which we say, “See, this is new!”
has already existed in the ages that preceded us.
There is no remembrance of the men of old;
nor of those to come will there be any remembrance
among those who come after them.

Dear Father Victor, there certainly is a remembrance of the men of old….NOT no remembrance. We may not say it often enough, but, today, I missed your commentary!! What is life without you helping us sort through it, through Scripture.
By the way, your presentation to us at all OLM is still getting rave reviews!! You helped us, through the natural beauty of flowers, get closer to Our Blessed Mother. We might ask you to come back with more!! Faithfully, Fabienne

BTW, not we “might,” don’t be surprised if we do…sometimes NOT all things are Vanity!!
May God always please you, as you please us when you speak to us in His name. In Christ’s love and hope, Fabienne
