Ecclesiastes 3:1-8
|
From The Holy Bible (King James Version)
Attributed to King Solomon |

To everything 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;
A time to cast away stones, and
a time to gather stones together;
a time to embrace, and
a time to refrain from embracing;
A time to get, and
a time to lose;
a time to keep, and
a time to cast away;
A time to rend, 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 of war; and
a time of peace.
Turn, Turn, Turn – The Byrds
The past month has had my life turn upside down and had me experience the loss of someone close to me. It has also made me learn about how much one person can make such a difference. The one person everyone can come back to. The one person that brings everyone together. The one person became our family rock.
I never thought the day would come when I would not be able to have to say a “goodbye”. It seemed impossible. I believed that everything would stay the same. “Everything the same”. That I would be a full grown adult with children who came over to visit my grandmother who was still in the same home. This is still, and will be for quite some time difficult for me to process. It still hasn’t sunk in. I don’t know when it will. The only way that I can relieve some of my thoughts and questions is through this blog. I don’t think I’ll ever understand why she had to be taken away. She was a perfectly healthy, happy and content person. Then.. suddenly all of this?
I’ll leave my blog at this, but I hope to start blogging again. Blogging about things that make sense… and things that people give a stuff about. I’ll try.
