Regardless of your religious inclinations, or whether you believe in God or not, it is undeniable that the Bible contains many passages and teachings that are useful and practical. One such passage is from the book of Ecclesiastes in the Old Testament. In Chapter 4 it described something very profound that struck me. It is about how people keep chasing after the wind.
What does chasing after the wind mean? Have you tried doing it yourself? Perhaps not, because you know that you cannot see the wind. You cannot grasp it nor catch it. It always slips away from your hands. Since you cannot catch it at all, chasing it would be pointless.
