"Turn! Turn! Turn! (to Everything There Is a Season)" The Byrds

“To every thing there is a season...A time to weep!” Ecclesiastes

There is a time to weep and properly so. Certainly we should embrace it as one ingredient in the mess we have made of things. Should we not grieve over injustice, hunger, and suffering? Shouldn't we grieve over our part in these things? Let my soul mourn its selfishness if only because of my apathy toward the suffering of others. Let me grieve over a hypocritical and impotent concern which acknowledges how sad the plight of my neighbor but refuses to do anything about it. Conversations Within ts 3/28/2012 (Windsor Rock, AL)
