For everything there is a season, a time for every activity under heaven. A time to be born and a time to die. A time to plant and a time to harvest. A time to kill and a time to heal. A time to tear down and a time to build up. A time to cry and a time to laugh. A time to grieve and a time to dance. A time to scatter stones and a time to gather stones. A time to embrace and a time to turn away. A time to search and a time to quit searching. A time to keep and a time to throw away. A time to tear and a time to mend. A time to be quiet and a time to speak. A time to love and a time to hate. A time for war and a time for peace.

• We are afraid of the unknown, and afraid of confrontation

• We worry about hurting someone • We do not possess the skills to bring about a good

ending • We do not learn from them, so we repeat them again

and again

• What has been the history and performance so far?

• Is there anything in place that might make a difference?

• What is changing that I can believe in?

• Is there energy for change?

Crumble. This is not your destruction. This is your birth.’
