1 I said to myself, “Have fun and enjoy yourself!” But this didn't make sense.
2 Laughing and having fun is crazy. What good does it do?
3 I wanted to find out what was best for us during the short time we have on this earth. So I decided to make myself happy with wine and find out what it means to be foolish, without really being foolish myself.
4 I did some great things. I built houses and planted vineyards.
5 I had flower gardens and orchards full of fruit trees.
6 And I had pools where I could get water for the trees.
