Quotes on Life - There is a Time for Everything
“There
is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under heaven:
a
time to be born and a time to die,
a
time to plant and a time to uproot,
a
time to kill and a time to heal,
a
time to tear down and a time to build,
a
time to weep and a time to laugh,
a
time to mourn and a time to dance,
a
time to scatter stones and a time to gather them,
a
time to embrace and a time to refrain,
a
time to search and a time to give up,
a
time to keep and a time to throw away,
a
time to tear and a time to mend,
a
time to be silent and a time to speak,
a
time to love and a time to hate,
a
time for war and a time for peace.
(Ecclesiastes
3:1-8, NIV)”

have told about our life. Told to others, but—mainly—to ourselves.”
