“Even toil is hevel! Hard work and everything it produces is like a vapor; here for a moment and then gone…One commentator calls this section ‘the confessions of a workaholic’. In our search for meaning and satisfaction we exert all of this effort to get the next possession which we will never really enjoy because we are working for the next improvement or item on our never-ending list of wants.
Here the myth that hard work and well-earned wealth validates life is dispelled. Instead the restless ambition to achieve destroys families and leaves people in despair. They hate their toil even while they are consumed by it.”
