There Is A Season

It has been a sad difficult day......my sister Pat's son died suddenly this afternoon, the only thing I can think of to post tonight are the lyrics to The Byrds's song, Turn,Turn, Turn
Please send love and prayers to Pat and her daughters, Becky and Jayna, and to Michael's three children.


"Turn! Turn! Turn!"

To everything - turn, turn, turn
There is a season - turn, turn, turn
And a time for 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 for 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 for every purpose under heaven

A time of war, a time of peace
A time of love, a time of hate
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 for every purpose under heaven

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

  2. Oh, Jilda- I don't know you well but my heart just aches and breaks for your sister and the whole family. There is just something so unnatural about a child predeceasing their parents. God bless- I wish I could help spare them pain- xo Diana
