Lighten your burden
A speaker is giving a motivational speech. He raises a glass of
water and asks the audience "How heavy do you think this glass of
water is?"
"It depends on how long you hold it"
"If I hold it for a minute, it is Ok."
"If I hold it for an hour, I will have an ache in my right arm"
"If I hold it for a day, you will have to call an ambulance"
"It is the exact same weight, but the longer I hold it, the heavier
it becomes"
If we carry our burdens all the time, sooner or later, we will not
be able to carry on, the burden becoming increasingly heavier.
"What you have to do is to put the glass down, rest for a while
before holding it up again."
We have to put down the burden periodically, so that we can be
Refreshed and are able to carry on. When you return home from work,
put the burden of work down. Don't carry it home. You can pick it
up tomorrow. Rest and relax. We should take life one day at a
time.
