"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,
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
"The future is something which everyone reaches at the rate of 60 minutes an hour, whatever he does, whoever he is." C. S. Lewis
"Trust in him at all times, you people; pour out your hearts to him, for God is our refuge."Psalm 62:7-9
“Time is too slow for those who wait, too swift for those who fear, too long for those who grieve, too short for those who rejoice, but for those who love, time is eternity.” Henry Van Dyke
"Time is the coin of your life. It is the only coin you have, and only you can determine how it will be spent. Be careful lest you let other people spend it for you." Carl Sandburg
"Take time to think...
it is the source of power.
Take time to play...
it is the secret of perpetual youth.
Take time to pray...
it is the greatest power on earth.
Take time to love and be loved...
it is a God-given privilege.
Take time to be friendly...
it is the road to happiness.
Take time to laugh...
it is the music of the soul.
Take time to give...
it is too short a day to be selfish.
Take time to work...
it is the price of success.
Take time to do charity...
it is the key to heaven."

I am happy that I took the TIME to read every word of this post TWICE:) I cherish YOU! BIG HUGS AND lots of LOVE!
Love the Van Dyke & Sandburg quotes! I also enjoyed seeing all your clocks especially that one that's all a plate display. So pretty!
Reading this post I felt as if I were hearing a chorus of tick-tocks and chimes throughout! Loved all the wisdom in those quotes. Happy 1st of March my friend. xoxo ~Lili
I love all of your clocks and quotes! The C.S. Lewis one is a favorite anyway. The plate display clock is so different and pretty. Looking at all these things in your house is like going through a decorating magazine. You give me good ideas.
It was 73 degrees here today! Spring is around the corner.
Hugs!
