'''Vanity''' can be seen as the full exaggeration of [[pride]] especially where that pride is based on the superficial things of one's person, such as appearance, fashion and style, physical abilities, susceptibility to flattery and [[self-deception]].

[[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.
