At least thats what King Solomon learned-and he tried all those things on a HUGE scale and still wasnt content. In fact, chasing those ideas and getting what he wanted actually made him more depressed. So what are we supposed to do if the wisest man in history couldnt make those things work? Thankfully, Solomon left us a whole book of his trials and errors.Maybe youve looked at other peoples lives and thought, If only I had that, my life would be perfect. The problem is, those same people are asking the same question when they come across someone else. Even the wisest man in the world, Solomon, struggled with it.
