Is There A Purpose?

You can form a pot from clay

and humankind is formed from the dust of the ground

"From dust you came, and to dust you shall return"

You may try to capture the multiplexity of Creation in a piece of art

yet not see the whole picture

You may sail around the globe

yet fail to find yourself

Sacrifice everything

yet nothing win

You can share your bread

and find a friend

Write a novel playing God

yet go astray yourself

A physicist may understand the atoms' secret life

yet fail to understand his wife

You can have it all

yet nothing at all

You can be poor

yet be rich

Is there any purpose in the vanity of it all?

That is the question at heart

Yet, God is in the midst of it all
