"To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under heaven:

A time to be born and a time to die; a 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.

A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance . . ." Ecclesiastes 3:1-4

"Love keeps watch and is never unaware, even when it sleeps; tired, it is never exhausted;

hindered, it is never defeated; alarmed, it is never afraid; but like a living flame and a burning

torch it bursts upward and blares forth . . . " Thomas A Kempis
