A psychology lecturer held half glass of water and questioned,"What is the weight of this glass?"Different replies came from the students, ranging from 2mls to 10mls.The lecturer said, "Absolute weight does'nt matter. It depends how long we hold it. Hold this glass for two minutes there is no problem,in one hour my hand will pain, if I hold it the whole day, my hand will paralyse. Similarly if we worry about our problems for a minute they will pass off but the longer we worry , they will paralyse our mind, incapable of doing anything." DON'T WORRY!

DeleteCarrying unwanted weight on our shoulders would only give us more pain in the form of frozen shoulders, and no medicine can cure it, for it is up to us to release our burden and feel free from the pain.
