““Experience everything; Times of sorrow, times of Joy. Times of darkness, times of light. Times of lost heart, times of hope. Times of hate, times of love. Times of pain , times of peace. Times of distress, times of dancing. Times of sickness, times of recover of strength. Times of lost, times of finding the way. Times of wandering, times of wonder. Times of failure, times of success. Times of fall, times of rise. Time of sowing, times of harvesting. Times of injury , times of healing. Times of waiting, times of fulfilled wish. Times of praying, times of receiving the promise. Times of ploughing, times of planting. Times of dreaming, times of working to achieve the dream. Times of doubt, times of Faith.””
