It Will Pass In Time


Today I choose to write about "This Too Shall Pass." You see, to me, it's more than a Bible verse, or a commonly used phrase. It's a state of mind. It's peace, for me at least. Once any of us can get into this frame of mind, it's easier to face life's challenges. This is why I'd like to share it with you.

It's really easy to change the way you think and accept this simple catch phrase. Because it's the truth! Everything does pass in time!

You simply have to a. believe it! and b. reiterate it! If you think about it, everything comes and goes. Yes, even the good things. Since we already know to relish them, even though good times pass, it's more important to realize that bad times pass, too. Because, let's face it, you'd rather them pass! So then it's onto reiterating it. This involves changing the way you think. Re-training your mind to think positively. Or, in this case, acceptively. It may take a while for some of us who have negative thinking engrained in our minds, but that's okay. It's a matter of saying it to yourself when things get rough, and posting reminders around you so you stay focused.

For me, music is a constant reminder of this powerful, positive statement. I have adopted the song "Pass In Time" by Beth Orton (get it) as my personal hymnal. I think it's important to remember that in the midst of a bad time, you won't always just snap into positivity. In those cases, it's important to realize and accept that you will be positive, and you will get back onto yoru positive wave. Just let things go. We have also heard the meditative phrase, "Let Go and Let God". Well even if you don't believe in the Lord, hang onto that. Or at least the "Let Go" part of it. Because what can you do during bad times but let go of the anxiety and let the time pass? Think about it. Soak in as much positivity as you can. It doesn't mean being happy all the time, but when you develop positive thinking, it will serve as an inner peace during life's storms.

Letting things pass, and knowing that they will, is sure to give you peace of mind once you adopt the concept into your life. And, hopefully reduce stress and improve your overall physical and mental health. Here are a few web sites with the theme of letting things go and pass in time. I sure hope you enjoy them, and this article.
