Blog readers, there are many good axioms about life and its patterns and cycles—truisms, proverbs, metaphors, and cycles. Yesterday I blogged Jean-Baptiste Alphonse Karr wrote “plus ça change, plus c'est la même chose” — the more things change, the more they stay the same.
I like "this too shall pass" a Persian proverb that conveys the idea that both positive and negative moments in life are temporary. "If you don't like the weather, wait a few minutes"; this saying is often attributed to Mark Twain, highlighting how weather can change rapidly, especially in regions like New England. A famous axiom of life is "The only constant is change," often attributed to the Greek philosopher Heraclitus, signifying that the only thing always happening is transformation and flux. "Time waits for no one" originates from the old proverb "Time and tide wait for no man," which first appeared in the writings of Geoffrey Chaucer around 1395.

Karma is a concept that describes the relationship between actions and their consequences, and how those consequences affect a person's life. The word karma comes from Sanskrit and simply means "action."
Why am I writing all these familiar sayings? I write them to remind us not to put too much fate in something good that is going on or too much distress in bad things going on. Deal only with what you can when you can, and move on.
