Ecclesiastes 2:1-3

International Children’s Bible

Does “Having Fun” Bring Happiness?

2 I said to myself, “I will try having fun. I will enjoy myself.” But I found that this is also useless. ² It is foolish to laugh all the time. Having fun gets nothing done. ³ I decided to cheer myself up with wine. At the same time my mind was still thinking wisely. I wanted to find a way to enjoy myself. I wanted to see what was good for people to do during their few days of life.
