King Solomon

What has been will be again, what has been done will be done again; there is nothing new under the sun.

Ecclesiastes 1:9 Excerpt

The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be,…. The thing that has been seen and heard is no other than what shall be seen and heard again; so that what is now seen and heard is only what has been seen and heard before; it is but the same thing over again; and that is the reason why the eye and ear are never satisfied; the same objects, as the visible heavens and earth, and all therein, which have been from the beginning, these are they which shall be, and there is nothing else to be seen and heard, and enjoyed; (SourceHERE)

What’s My Point Questions?

When will we wise up and realize that every new generation keeps repeating the same folly of the past generations over and over, again and again?

When will we wise up and think before we make bad decisions or actions to repeat the folly rather than wisdom learned from the past?

When and how will we teach wisdom to our children to prevent them from “rediscovering” by repeating the same follies,  or learning to emulate the wise decisions discovered in the past?
