Ecclesiastes and the Weight of Meaninglessness
Have you ever noticed how unsettling Ecclesiastes feels compared to most of Scripture. It does not rush to reassure. It does not soften its conclusions. It returns again and again to the same observation: everything fades, everything repeats, and nothing under the sun seems capable of holding still long enough to become permanent.

Functioning Is Not the Same as Being Okay. Content Warning. AI-Generated.
At some point in adulthood, survival becomes subtle. You are no longer fighting dramatic battles. You are managing continuity. You wake up, do what is required, respond appropriately, and keep life moving forward. From the outside, this looks like stability. From the inside, it often feels like depletion carefully managed.
