It's fine people. I'm back to my friendly self.
"This too shall pass" - My aunt, every time I was upset about something since I was 14.At least we love you. It could always be worse.

"This too shall pass" (Persian: این نیز بگذرد, īn nīz bogzarad; Arabic: لا شيء يدوم, lit. "nothing endures"; Hebrew: גם זה יעבור, gam zeh ya'avor) is an adage indicating that all material conditions, positive or negative, are temporary.
The phrase seems to have originated in the writings of the medieval Persian Sufi poets, and is often attached to a fable of a great king who is humbled by the simple words. Some versions of the fable, beginning with that of Attar of Nishapur, add the detail that the phrase is inscribed on a ring, which has the ability to make the happy man sad and the sad man happy.
Good little nugget of truth. It usually does, and soon followed by another life event that needs this reminder. Again, and again, and again. Might as well enjoy life through it all."This too shall pass" - My aunt, every time I was upset about something since I was 14.

Great idea. I usually keep throw blankets around. That seems like a comforting thing to do. I'm in love anything that makes my space comfortable. I keep candles lit most of the time.Prime has a few different videos for that. I like to turn it on when I'm reading at night.
