I am nothing

Truth be told I seem to write like I have it all figured out. Yes maybe a few weeks ago I had it all figures out, but today, today I have realised that I AM NOTHING.
You may never understand that statement but hopefully you will bare with me.
I used to think I am special and extraordinary and I am used to walking like I am better than everyone else. But who am I? I am nobody, who is anyone? we are all nobodies. It could be "we are a bunch of bodies". That most times, makes mistakes, destroy the world we are given, esteem ourselves better than others, filled with self interest, not acknowledging God who created us.
We are truly a bunch of wasted bodies. In the end we are nothing. The world will end and if it is not by His mercy and grace we will all end up into nothingness like everything else.
So who do you think you are?
And what can you possibly do?
Are you better than a beggar?
Aren't we all just beggars, but some of us beg in higher places and some beg on streets.  Are we all nothing and we strive for the wind to be recognised as something, only to die and end up at the same place, just dust!!! It's all for nothing until.................

Earnestly remember your Creator before the silver cord [of life] is broken, or the golden bowl is crushed, or the pitcher at the fountain is shattered and the wheel at the cistern is crushed; then the dust [out of which God made man’s body] will return to the earth as it was, and the spirit will return to God who gave it. “Vanity of vanities,” says the Preacher. “All [that is done without God’s guidance] is vanity (futility).” The words of the wise are like [prodding] goads, and these collected sayings are [firmly fixed in the mind] like well-driven nails; they are given by one Shepherd. But beyond this my son, [about going further than the words given by one Shepherd], be warned: the writing of many books is endless [so do not believe everything you read], and excessive study and devotion to books is wearying to the body. When all has been heard, the end of the matter is: fear God [worship Him with awe-filled reverence, knowing that He is almighty God] and keep His commandments, for this applies to every person. For God will bring every act to judgment, every hidden and secret thing, whether it is good or evil.
