30 Word Thursday:: Ecclesiastes 3: 1-10

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.

Ecclesiastes 3: 1-10

As usual, this is more than 30 words, but to leave a single word out would be a mistake.
