A Time for Everything

An overflow of responsibilities, combined with a lack of inspiration, caused the Swallow to be silent for a while.  The Swallow knows there is a purpose to this - it is better to be silent than to speak wrongly...

Ecclesiastes 3 : 1 - 15 (NIV)
There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under heaven:
a time to be born and a time to die,
a time to plant and a time to uproot,
a time to kill and a time to heal,
a time to tear down and a time to build,
a time to weep and a time to laugh,
a time to mourn and a time to dance,
a time to scatter stones and a time to gather them,
a time to embrace and a time to refrain,
a time to search and a time to give up,
a time to keep and a time to throw away,
a time to tear and a time to mend,
a time to be silent and a time to speak,
a time to love and a time to hate,
a time for  war and a time for peace.
