Solomon, by inspiration, paints a gruesome picture in the 4th and 5th chapters of Ecclesiastes, about how meaningless life here on earth is. Of course he is writing about the physical side of life.
God wants us to see and to understand that if we are not developing a firm spiritual life...then it is dismal indeed...even our whole existence and reason for being here on earth is being neglected by ourselves...and it becomes meaningless...a chasing after the wind.
He did not intend for it to be that way for us. Just as He has given us the means to sustain our physical existence...He has given us the means also, to develop and sustain our spiritual life through His Son, the Lord Jesus Christ.
It would be good for us to not neglect it.
