...and a time for every matter under heaven
a time to be born - Chole Rose and Thomas Burke
and a time to die - my dear Great Auntie Eileen
a time to plant - my dear children
and a time to pluck up - the weeds in my garden
a time to kill - spiders in the bathroom
and a time to heal - a grazed knee
a time to break down - the walls around me
and a time to build up - Spiritually
a time to weep - with those who are weeping
and a time to laugh - at Pete's jokes
a time to mourn - for the poverty/inequality and injustice in this world
and a time to dance - with my boys in the living room
a time to cast away stones - my past
and a time to gather stones together - new memories
a time to embrace - my loved ones
and a time to refrain from embracing - people who don't see it coming!
a time to seek - the truth
and a time to lose - my keys!
a time to keep - my treasured possessions
and a time to cast away - the clutter in my house
a time to tear - my hair out!
and a time to sew - a hole in a sock
a time to keep silence - in loyalty to a friend
and a time to speak - in honesty
a time to love - my neighbour
and a time to hate - myself
a time for war - against my flesh
and a time for peace - with my heart
