To Everything There is a Season
1 To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:
2 A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted;
3 A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up;
4 A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance;
5 A time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing;
6 A time to get, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away;
7 A time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak;
8 A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace.
9 What profit hath he that worketh in that wherein he laboureth?
10 I have seen the travail, which God hath given to the sons of men to be exercised in it.
11 He hath made every thing beautiful in his time: also he hath set the world in their heart, so that no man can find out the work that God maketh from the beginning to the end.
12 I know that there is no good in them, but for a man to rejoice, and to do good in his life.
13 And also that every man should eat and drink, and enjoy the good of all his labour, it is the gift of God.
14 I know that, whatsoever God doeth, it shall be for ever: nothing can be put to it, nor any thing taken from it: and God doeth it, that men should fear before him.
15 That which hath been is now; and that which is to be hath already been; and God requireth that which is past.
16 And moreover I saw under the sun the place of judgment, that wickedness was there; and the place of righteousness, that iniquity was there.
17 I said in mine heart, God shall judge the righteous and the wicked: for there is a time there for every purpose and for every work.
18 I said in mine heart concerning the estate of the sons of men, that God might manifest them, and that they might see that they themselves are beasts.
19 For that which befalleth the sons of men befalleth beasts; even one thing befalleth them: as the one dieth, so dieth the other; yea, they have all one breath; so that a man hath no preeminence above a beast: for all is vanity.
20 All go unto one place; all are of the dust, and all turn to dust again.
21 Who knoweth the spirit of man that goeth upward, and the spirit of the beast that goeth downward to the earth?
22 Wherefore I perceive that there is nothing better, than that a man should rejoice in his own works; for that is his portion: for who shall bring him to see what shall be after him? — Ecclesiastes 3 | King James Version (KJV) The King James Version Bible is in the public domain.

Sunday Morning Coffee: Home Alone
I woke up at 4 a,m. Not my happy time. I’ve had trouble all week, can’t fall asleep. Jumpy leg, restless all over. I need to find a way to get back into a decent routine. No one warned me that old age and retirement can mess with your inner body clock! You know what’s really aggravating? I’m SO sleepy now, but a nap is not an option. I HAVE to stay awake until bedtime if I’m going to get back…

Can't You Feel It? The Feeling is Everywhere!
Those are some of the words to David Foster’s theme song of the 1988 Winter Olympics in Calgary, Alberta. We were there and we felt it from our vantage point at the Opening and Closing Ceremonies where our daughter was a soloist and member of the Coca Cola World Chorus. Indeed we were inspired in that vast audience from around the world — all ready to cheer for their Olympic athlete who would…

18 I also said to myself, “As for humans, God tests them so that they may see that they are like the animals. 
19 Surely the fate of human beings is like that of the animals; the same fate awaits them both: As one dies, so dies the other. All have the same breath; humans have no advantage over animals. Everything is meaningless. 
20 All go to the same place; all come from dust, and to dust all return. 
21 Who knows if the human spirit rises upward and if the spirit of the animal goes down into the earth?”

More of the Stede having trauma reading:
Briefly adding on to this post, Stede likely wasn’t just abused interpersonally but also systemically as well.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The “Ecclesiastical Latin” bit was there to be funny, but it also serves the purpose of telling us that Stede has a religious background, and likely an intense one at that. You simply don’t become fluent in a language who’s only utility is to discuss Christian text otherwise. Other evidence for this is that he assumes he’s going to hell in episode 4, and that honestly given the time period it would be way weirder if he WASN’T born into religion. I’m more or less trying to argue his family may’ve been pretty hard core about it.
With the background knowledge of Stede being raised as a practicing Christian, all this talk of him “defiling beautiful things” and “bringing people to ruin” would definitely sound uncomfortably familiar.

Hope in the Hereafter
Hope in the Hereafter
16 Moreover, I saw under the sun that in the place of justice, even there was wickedness, and in the place of righteousness, even there was wickedness. 17 I said in my heart, God will judge the righteous and the wicked, for there is a time for every matter and for every work. 18 I said in my heart with regard to the children of man that God is testing them that they may see that they themselves…

Enjoy What is Good in Life
12 I realize that there’s nothing better for them to do than to be cheerful and enjoy what is good in their lives. 13 It is a gift from God to be able to eat and drink and experience the good that comes from every kind of hard work. — Ecclesiastes 3:12-13 | God's Word Translation (GWT) The Holy Bible, GOD’S WORD® Translation Copyright 1995 by God’s Word to the Nations.

"THERE'S DANGER IN TWISTING SCRIPTURE!"
Deuteronomy 4:2, “Now listen, Israel, listen carefully to the rules and regulations that I am teaching you to follow so that you may live and enter and take possession of the land that God, the God-of-Your-Fathers, is giving to you. DON’T ADD A WORD TO WHAT I COMMAND YOU, AND DON’T REMOVE A WORD FROM IT. Keep the commands of God, your God, that I am commanding you.” (MSG) Ecclesiastes 3:14-15,…
