Great Regulars: For Ecclesiastes, death is death.

Life is a parenthesis between one darkness and another. But no less precious for that: "Truly the light is sweet, and a pleasant thing it is for the eyes to behold the sun."

And no less a gift from God. For Ecclesiastes is no atheist. In his view, we are created for a space of time, and we should make the most of it, and be grateful for it.

from Frank Wilson: When Falls the Coliseum: That's What He Said: Life is a parenthesis between one darkness and another
