Subject: Some thoughts on living a happy life!
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:
>
> * Accept that some days you're the pigeon, and some days you're the
statue.
>
> * 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.
>
> * Nobody cares if you can't dance well. Just get up and dance.
>
> * 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.
>
> * You may be only one person in the world, but you may also be the
world to
> one person.
>
> * Some mistakes are too much fun to only make once.
>
> * We could learn a lot from crayons... Some are sharp, some are
pretty and
> some are dull. Some have weird names, and all are different colors,
but they
> all have to live in the same box.
>
> *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......I did.
>
> HAPPY NEW YEAR

> "Live Simply, Love Generously, Care Deeply, Speak Kindly, and Leave
the Rest
