[[Ecclesiastes]] 1 reminds us that "All is vanity" "all is mere chasing of the wind", meaning perhaps that focus on non godly things is a passing, useless endeavor for we will all die, and with death our beauty, our monetary worth, our physical strengths disappear into nothingness - even ugliness.  The only thing we truly have now and after death is our relationship with God.
