There is a Season


Things are changing quickly for me right now. I have some thinking to do and some decisions to make. This song has always spoken to me, now it seems appropriate to let it speak for me. Be well my friends.


Words-adapted from The Bible, book of Ecclesiastes
Music-Pete Seeger

To Everything (Turn, Turn, Turn)
There is a season (Turn, Turn, Turn)
And a time to every purpose, under Heaven

A time to be born, a time to die
A time to plant, a time to reap
A time to kill, a time to heal
A time to laugh, a time to weep

To Everything (Turn, Turn, Turn)
There is a season (Turn, Turn, Turn)
And a time to every purpose, under Heaven

A time to build up,a time to break down
A time to dance, a time to mourn
A time to cast away stones, a time to gather stones together

To Everything (Turn, Turn, Turn)
There is a season (Turn, Turn, Turn)
And a time to every purpose, under Heaven

A time of love, a time of hate
A time of war, a time of peace
A time you may embrace, a time to refrain from embracing

To Everything (Turn, Turn, Turn)
There is a season (Turn, Turn, Turn)
And a time to every purpose, under Heaven

A time to gain, a time to lose
A time to rend, a time to sew
A time for love, a time for hate
A time for peace, I swear it's not too late

  4. This sounds more like a good-by than I would like it to. We each have to do what's best for us. Just don't go away, whether posting or commenting or emailing. I can't imagination a situation you could be struggling with that could be helped by pulling away from friends.

    Big Old Hugs,

    1. Thank you Mrs. D, it's farewell for now. Life has a way of bringing us what we need, when we need it. I need to embrace that and not squander the opportunities Ive been given :)

  7. I hope you weren't saying goodbye. If you were, I hope you will return. But good luck in whatever you decide to do. You know what it best for you. And you know you have many friends here who would miss you.
