I would like to share one of my favorite passages in the Bible, may you learn something from it:
"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 3:1-8

Yes it's a great passage, from the wisdom of Solomon, who wrote the book.
It's a good reminder that there is a right time and a wrong time for everything... Even good things have to be done appropriately.

I love this fragment, it`s one of my favourites. Actually I praise the whole Ecclesiastes very high, because it`s a source of a great wisdom.
