To everything there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven: a time to be born and a time to die, time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which IS planted; a time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up, time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance: a time to cast away stones and a time to gather stones together,; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing; a time to get, and a time to lose, a time to keep, and a time to cast away; a time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak; a time to love, and a time to hate, a time of war, and a time of peace.
Ecclesiastes 3:1-8
