There is a time for everything,
and a season for every activity under the heavens:
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 from embracing,
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.

He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in the human heart; yet no one can fathom what God has done from beginning to end
(Ecclesiastes 3:1–8,11, NIV).
You can’t know everything. But you can know the season if you pay attention. What is the beautiful, elegant, fitting, effective thing for you to do right now in the season you are in?

This is a new beginning for me. New city, new digs, new people, new way of doing things. For example, used Instacart yesterday and will abort dread shopping from now on. I’m over the moon about that! I love new ways!
I'm currently cleaning our my art studio and storing all my jewelry making supplies. That season is now over for me. I did have a grief response to packing it all away, but at the same time the feeling of relief at not seeing it in my studio is beautiful.
