For Rangers Fans, Giants Fans, Or Anyone Else Whose Team Has Just Lost

As a baseball fan whose team's season has come to a close, I was reminded of Ecclesiastes 3:1-8. If you don't mind, I've added a few verses of my own that seem fitting right now.

"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."

A time to win and a time to choke.
A time to play on and a time to go home.
A time to keep believing and a time to be disappointed.
A time to lose and a time to defy the odds.
A time to rest and a time to begin again.
A time for self-examination and a time to let go of the past.
A time to hang your head in shame and a time to lift it in pride.
A time to be mocked and eventually a time to win.
There is a time for every activity under heaven.
No matter what team you cheer for.
