The Professor began his class by
holding up a glass with some water
in it. He held it up for all to see &
asked the students “How much do
you think this glass weighs?”
.
’50gms!’….. ’100gms!’ …..’125 gms’
…the students answered.. “I really
don’t know unless I weigh it,” said
the professor, “but, my question
is:
What would happen if I held it up
like this for a few minutes?”…. .
‘Nothing’ …..the students said. .
‘Ok what would happen if I held it
up like this for an hour?’ the
professor asked. ‘Your arm would
begin to ache’ said one of the
student.
“You’re right, now what would
happen if I held it for a day?”.
“Your arm could go numb; you
might have severe muscle stress &
paralysis & have to go to hospital
for sure!” ….. Ventured another
student & all the students laughed
.
“Very good. But during all this, did
the weight of the glass change?”
Asked the professor. ‘No’…. Was
the answer. “Then what caused the
arm ache & the muscle stress?”.
The students were puzzled. “What
should I do now to come out of
pain?” asked professor again. “Put
the glass down!” said one of the
students.
“Exactly!” said the professor. Life’s
problems are something like this..
Hold it for a few minutes in your
head & they seem OK. Think of
them for a long time & they begin
to ache. . Hold it even longer &
they begin to paralyze you. You will
not be able to do anything.
.
It’s important to think of the
challenges or problems in your life,
But EVEN MORE IMPORTANT is to
‘PUT THEM DOWN’ at the end of
every day before you go to sleep….
That way, you are not stressed, you
wake up every day fresh &strong &
can handle any issue, any challenge
that comes your way!
Moral
So, when you start your day today,
Remember friend to ‘PUT THE
GLASS DOWN TODAY! ‘
