What time are we in?

A Time for Everything

1 There is an appointed time for everything. And there is a time for every event under heaven—

2 A time to give birth and a time to die;

A time to plant and a time to uproot what is planted.

3 A time to kill and a time to heal;

A time to tear down and a time to build up.

4 A time to weep and a time to laugh;

A time to mourn and a time to dance.

5 A time to throw stones and a time to gather stones;

A time to embrace and a time to shun embracing.

6 A time to search and a time to give up as lost;

A time to keep and a time to throw away.

7 A time to tear apart and a time to sew together;

A time to be silent and a time to speak.

8 A time to love and a time to hate;

A time for war and a time for peace.

Which time are we in? *I'd really appreciate an expression. Mine would have to a time to love and a time to hate, simply because we have come to love our possessions and hate our neighbors.

Update:

I would really appreciate an explanation not an expression.

    Mine would be a Time to Live and a Time to Let Go - Live because we only have 1 life so make the most of it; Let Go because we always carry alot of emotional baggage that weighs us down heavily. :)

    The time we are in is now. You are in whatever time you need to be in at the moment and that time can change in the split of a second.

    A differnt type of time: Have you ever read the book "Einstein's Dreams" by Alan Lightman. Each chapter describes time in a different way through dreams (assumed to occur while Einstein was coming up with the theory of relativity). My favs: We are born old, but die as babies, (time in reverse), time moves slower the futther away from the Earth you go...so people build houses on stilts on the top of mountains, except for the rogue people who live at the bottom of valleys.

    A time to weep and a time to laugh.

    Weep today for the sorrows in the world, but learn to laugh for tomorrow.

    For the Creator create every season

    In our live every season
