Life is the "taking of turns"?
Hello. I was wondering on how to say "take turns" in this sentence.
Life is the *the taking of turns* between happiness and sorrow.
But, I don't know whether this is grammatically correct or not. Nor do I know whether this is idiomatic.
Is it correct and idiomatic? If not, how could I say that life is the interleaving between happiness and sorrow?
