I had my first request today!!! For a "Thought" on the subject of vanity. If you think hard enough.....you might even work out who made the request!

By the way, for those not versed in Latin - Vanitas Vanitatum translates as Vanity of Vanities.

Ah! Vanitas Vanitatum! Which of us is
happy in this world? Which of us has
his desire? or, having it, is satisfied? -
Come, children, let us shut up the box
and the puppets, for our play is played
out.

(William Makepeace Thackeray, English Novelist, 1811-1863)
