Something to think Of ......
A psychologist walked around a room while teaching stress management
She was holding up a glass of water and everyone was expecting the old "glass half full - half empty" question
But no , with a smile on her face she holds the glass higher and says
"How heavy do you think this glass is"?
A range of answers is shouted varying from 8 oz to 20 oz
She replied "the absolute weight does not matter, it's how long I hold it that matters"
"if I hold it for 1 minute, it's not a problem"
"If I hold it for an hour,my arm will be aching"
"If I hold it for a whole day my arm will become numb and feel paralysed "
"In each case the weight of the glass doesn't change , but the longer I hold it the heavier it becomes"
Moral of the story ....
The stresses 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 can start to hurt
Think about them all day long and you will feel paralysed and incapable of doing anything
Just put the glass down !
Merry Xmas to each and everyone of you
