Ecclesiastes 3:20-22

20 All go to one place, and all was of the dust, and all shall return to the dust.
21 Who [a]knoweth whether the spirit of man ascend upward, and the spirit of the beast descend downward to the earth?
22 Therefore I see that there is nothing better than that a man should [b]rejoice in his affairs, because that is his portion. For who shall bring him to see what shall be after him?
