Advice From My Father

October 18, 2023

This morning I was listening to a guided meditation on Acceptance.

The instructor used a mantra that happened to be something my dad often said throughout my life. 

Sometimes he would say it when I was worried about work.

Sometimes he would say it when I was worried about money.

Sometimes he would say it when I wasn’t feeling well. 

The first time he said this to me was when I had my heart broken as a young adult… and I didn’t think I would ever recover. 

He was always sincere when he shared his advice, but my thoughts were:

-He doesn’t understand.
-This is different.
-I will never recover or overcome this.

But HE was always right.

So when my meditation teacher offered up this mantra, I felt a tingle up my spine…. like my dad was sending a message from heaven. 

The words are simple:
 

“This Too Shall Pass.”


The phrase dates back to King Solomon, and it is to remind us of the power of impermanence. 

For those who are struggling with something today, I offer you this mantra. It has power behind it, and it is always true. 

xo, Jackie
