Just A Thought ~ HOLD ON. IT WILL PASS.

"If you're going through hell, keep going."

~ Winston Churchill ~

It is a phrase we sometimes hear people say, isn't it? ~ "I'm going through hell." They may think so, and indeed, it may appear so, depending upon their concept of hell ~ a concept, as there is not the least bit of evidence for hell as a place. What they mean is that they are going through a really hard time, suffering, sick, in danger, etc., things that are very real.

Hell is a state of mind, and we could hardly expect anyone to be bursting with joy if they or someone near and dear to them were in terrible pain, for example.

It helps to know something about the Law of Change ~ that nothing lasts forever, but changes constantly, although we cannot always see this, and change is not always as rapid as we would like it to be. Sometimes, however, it is so subtle, that we do not observe it, and suddenly, we realize that our troubles have passed, like clouds that covered the moon.

Hold on, in times of hell, and know that it will pass; keep going, and whatever you do, don't stop and stay there!
