A storm is coming young bucks!
Everybody knows it, we are all getting old.
The Temple is also this old house - some hints to the text below
-Keepers = legs
-Strong men = biceps
-Grinders = teeth
-Windows = Eyes (losing sight)
-Doors = Ears (machinery becomes soft, but sometimes you stir up over a quiet noise)
-Fear of what is high = fear of falling
-Terrors = fear of leaving the home, too weak to fight off attacks
-Almond Tree blossom= white hair (white flower)
-Grasshopper dragging = Normally full of life and flight, but not before death
-Failing desire = we no longer have the urges of youth
-Silver cord/bowl/pitcher/cistern wheel = water from a well, the life blood of a house
-Mourners go about the street = it's expected the old will die, so they attend a funeral and then immediately talk about hitting up a restaurant or go shopping
Ecclesiastes 12
3. in the day when the keepers of the house tremble, and the strong men are bent, and the grinders cease because they are few, and those who look through the windows are dimmed, 4 and the doors on the street are shut—when the sound of the grinding is low, and one rises up at the sound of a bird, and all the daughters of song are brought low— 5 they are afraid also of what is high, and terrors are in the way; the almond tree blossoms, the grasshopper drags itself along,[a] and desire fails, because man is going to his eternal home, and the mourners go about the streets— 6 before the silver cord is snapped, or the golden bowl is broken, or the pitcher is shattered at the fountain, or the wheel broken at the cistern, 7 and the dust returns to the earth as it was, and the spirit returns to God who gave it. 8 Vanity[b] of vanities, says the Preacher; all is vanity.
