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

There is never enough time to do everything, but there is always enough time to do the most important thing.Brian Tracy:

The future is something which everyone reaches at the rate of sixty minutes an hour, whatever he does, whoever he is.C. S. Lewis:
