Is That All There Is?

That is the title of a Peggy Lee song. And I have to say there have been times in my life that I have asked myself that and lately, I have been having that feeling if not directly asking the question. Also our Bible study group has been studying Ecclesiastics and that whole book is pretty much "Is That All There Is". Oh I know we glean some teachings here and there from it, but in general, that is the question we have to ask about life. I guess for those who have no faith in life after death, this must be an unanswerable question. I do believe in God and his son Jesus Christ and that through the shedding of Jesus' blood we have hope for a life here after and a good one.

But I have to say looking at each day in this life, I do wonder if can life be different here? Is there something I can do to make life better for me and for those around me? And if I can, what is that thing? Do I need to made a conscious effort each day to try to do this, or can I rely on who I am to do this? I hope that it is a thing within me to be this way, yet I find myself being mean at times. And I do hate that part of me.

Well I just had to get that off my chest
