it is this thing about whatever is going on in her life ........
This Too Shall Pass.
So if you're having a problem today or this week or this month and feel totally overwhelmed by it, please remember those 4 simple words.

A good mantra for tough times
I like that and use it quite a bit when I am in some deep mess. Good to remember when the going gets tough.
