Got stress?

A lecturer, when explaining stress management
to an audience, raised a glass of water and asked,

"How heavy is this glass of water?"

Answers called out ranged from 20g to 500g.

The lecturer replied,
"The absolute weight doesn't matter.

It depends on how long you try to hold it.

If I hold it for a minute, that's not a problem.

If I hold it for an hour, I'll have an ache in my right arm.

If I hold it for a day, you'll have to call an ambulance.

In each case, it's the same weight, but the longer I hold it, the heavier it becomes."

He continued,

"And that's the way it is with stress management.

If we carry our burdens all the time, sooner or later,

as the burden becomes increasingly heavy,
we won't be able to carry on. "

"As with the glass of water, you have to put it

down for a while and rest before holding it again.

When we're refreshed, we can carry on with

the burden."

"So, before you return home tonight, put

the burden of work down.

Don't carry it home.

You can pick it up tomorrow.

Whatever burdens you're carrying now,

let them down for a moment if you can."

So, my friend, why not take a while to just
simply RELAX.
Put down anything that may be a burden to
you right now.

Don't pick it up again until after you've rested

a while.

Life is short.

Enjoy it!

Here are some great ways of dealing with

the burdens of life:



* Always keep your words soft and sweet,

just in case you have to eat them.

* Always read stuff that will make you look

good if you die in the middle of it.

* Drive carefully. It's not only cars that can

be recalled by their maker.

* If you can't be kind, at least have the decency

to be vague.

* If you lend someone $20 and never see

that person again, it was probably worth it

* It may be that your sole purpose in life is

simply to serve as a warning to others.

* Never buy a car you can't push.

* Never put both feet in your mouth at the

same time, because ! then you won't have a leg
to stand on.

* Since it's the early worm that gets eaten by

the bird, sleep late.

* The second mouse gets the cheese.

* When everything's coming your way, you're

in the wrong lane.

* Birthdays are good for you. The more you

have, the longer you live.

* Some mistakes are too much fun to only

make once.

*A truly happy person is one who can enjoy

the scenery on a detour.


Have an awesome day and know that someone

has thought about you today!

Too many missing people. Too many BAD relationships. Too many errors in judgement. If the infomation on this site prevents 1 mistake it has accomplished something.
