The words except the title were taken from one of the books of the Bible. They tell us of the opposites that are so prevailent in life. This yin and yang concept (and the balancing of these opposites) is meaningful in Taoism, Buddhism, Sufism and Paganism as well as in the religions that use the Bible as a historical guide.

Here are the words to Turn Turn Turn:
To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:
A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, a time to reap that which 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 cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing;
A time to get, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away;
A time to rend, 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 of war, and a time of peace. - Pete Seeger
I believe you will agree with me that now is a time for all of us to gather together and create our time of world peace!
Again, Happy Solstice and thank you for being with me on the pathway to awareness!
