About This too shall pass

"This too shall pass" is an adage of likely Persian origin about impermanence. It reflects the temporary nature, or ephemerality, of the human condition — that neither negative nor positive moments in life last indefinitely. The general sentiment of the adage appears in wisdom literature throughout history and across cultures, but the specific phrase seems to have originated in the writings of medieval Persian Sufi poets.
