Turn, Turn, Turn

My youngest sister recently sent retirement good wishes my way and included the YouTube clip shown below. Wow...talk about taking you back in time instantly! The angelic voice of Judy Collins and the melody penned by Pete Seeger (with the help of the book of Ecclesiastes) put me right back in the mid-sixties.

And for me, it's time to turn into the retirement season, right after I listen to Ms Collins' beautiful voice while gazing into those beautiful eyes!




To Everything
There is a season
And a time to every purpose, under Heaven

A time to be born, a time to die
A time to plant, a time to reap
A time to kill, a time to heal
A time to laugh, a time to weep

To Everything
There is a season
And a time to every purpose, under Heaven

A time to build up, a time to break down
A time to dance, a time to mourn
A time to cast away stones, a time to gather stones together

To Everything
There is a season
And a time to every purpose, under Heaven

A time of love, a time of hate
A time of war, a time of peace
A time you may embrace, a time to refrain from embracing

To Everything
There is a season
And a time to every purpose, under Heaven

A time to gain, a time to lose
A time to rend, a time to sew
A time for love, a time for hate
A time for peace, I swear it's not too late
