How heavy do you think this glass of water is? How long do you think you could hold onto it? One minute? One hour? What do you think would happen if you held onto it all day? The weight of the glass doesn't change, it's how long you hold it. The glass of water represents the stress and worries of our lives. How long we hold onto them is what matters the most. When we hold onto our stress all day, every day it wears us down. Sometimes we need to put the glass down. Releasing stress starts with letting go of the things we cannot control.
