Why not let people differ about their answers to the great mysteries of the Universe? Let each seek one's own way to the
highest, to one's own sense of supreme loyalty in life, one's ideal of life. Let each philosophy, each world-view bring forth
its truth and beauty to a larger perspective, that people may grow in vision, stature and dedication.

For everything there is a season,
And a time for every matter under heaven:
A time to be born, and a time to die;
A time to plant, and a time to pluck up what 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 throw away stones, and a time to gather stones together;
A time to embrace, And a time to refrain from embracing;
A time to seek, and a time to lose;
A time to keep, and a time to throw away;
A time to tear, and a time to sew;
A time to keep silence, and a time to speak;
A time to love, and a time to hate,
A time for war, and a time for peace.

We do not grow absolutely, chronologically. We grow sometimes in one dimension, and not in another; unevenly. We grow
partially. We are relative. We are mature in one realm, childish in another. The past, present, and future mingle and pull us
backward, forward, or fix us in the present. We are made up of layers, cells, constellations.
