A popular 1960s ballad performed by Joni Mitchell, titled "Both Sides Now," is aligned with the book of Ecclesiastes because it expresses the frustration and confusion of life that is experienced from the point of view of all who have not been set apart by God to see things from His perspective. One line depicting the frustration reads, "I've looked at clouds from both sides now, from up and down, and still somehow, it's cloud illusions I recall, I really don't know clouds at all. I've looked at life from both sides now, from win and lose and still somehow, it's life's illusions I recall, I really don't know life...". This perspective encapsulates the way people look at life under the sun. The disillusionment experienced by all living under the sun can only be cleared up under the perfect government of Jesus Christ, Who will be fully ruling according to the spirit of the law of outgoing concern that will bring peace to the whole world, as mankind learns to submit to the perfect government of God. These holy days we are now keeping are no mere illusion for us as we look forward to the reality of the Word of God once again on His Throne in Jerusalem, clearly ruling in the sight of all men during the Millennium.
