Show Keep in Step With The Times "There's no point in worrying. All my life I cried when it was time to cry, I laughed when it was time to laugh, and I sang when it was time to sing." So said 101 year old Mrs. Marie Renier. Reminiscent she is of the ancient an-cient ecclesiast whose words have lived for thousands of years: "To every thing there is a season, a a time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which 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 embrace, and a time to refrain re-frain from embracing; a time to get, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away; a time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace;" In other words "NOW" is the time to live. Those who live in the past are dead. Those who live in the future are inpractical. The present is all we have. As Henry Longfellow said in his "Psalm of Life"-- "Act, act in the living present. Heart within, God o'erhead." |
