Life, Glass of Water, Science
PUT THE GLASS DOWN AND LET GO
A science teacher walked into his classroom to teach density and volumes of water..
Whiles he was about to start, she raised a glass of water as everyone expected they will be asked the "half empty or half full" questions.
But instead with a smile on her face, she inquired:" how heavy is the glass of water?
Answers called out ranges from 8 oz to 20 oz.
She replied, "the absolute weight doesn't matter. It depends on how long I hold it.
If I hold it for a minute, its not a problem, if I hold it for an hour,I will have an ache in my arm.
If I hold it for a day, my arm will feel numb and paralyzed.
In each case,the weight of the glass doesn't change, but the longer I hold it, the heavier it becomes".
She continued lecturing the students that stress and worries in life are like that of the glass of water.
Think about them for a while and nothing happens..
Think about them a bit longer and they begins to hurt ...
And if u think about them all day long u will feel paralyzed and incapable of doing anything.
Its important to remember to let go of your stress and worries
As early as u can,and put your burdens down
Don't carry your stress through out your life.
What has been ur stress???
( marital, financial, relationship, societal etc)
Life is more important than those external forces coming to drain u down, kill your happiness, destroy your health and damage your potentials..
Put that glass down.
