Ecclesiastes 3:1-8

For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven:

A time to be born, and a time to die;
A time to plant, and a time to pluck up what is planted;
A time to kill, and a time to heal;
A time to break down, and a time to build up;
A time to weep, and a time to laugh;
A time to mourn, and a time to dance;
A time to throw away stones, and a time to gather stones together;
A time to embrace, And a time to refrain from embracing;
A time to seek, and a time to lose;
A time to keep, and a time to throw away;
A time to tear, 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 for war, and a time for peace.

Truly a great passage. My alltime very favorite Bible Chapter is Psalm 91.

P.S. Sydney says that 2008 is a time to be born :)

Yesterday was my time to weep, and a time to laugh. Terrible day at work followed-up by movie night with the husband. I had to go comedy to make the day better. Very happy to say that I did not even open up my laptop yesterday once I got home from work :) a successful day
