She replied, “The absolute weight doesn’t matter. It depends on how long I hold it. If I hold it for a minute, it’s not a problem. If I hold it for an hour, I’ll have an ache in my arm. If I hold it for a day, my arm will feel numb and paralyzed.

And if you think about them all day long, you will feel paralyzed – incapable of doing anything.”
It’s important to remember to let go of your stresses. As early in the evening as you can, put all your burdens down. Don’t carry them through the evening and into the night. Remember to put the glass down
I loved this…its going to stick with me because its true. The more you hold onto things…the worse your own quality of life is. Ashy, its less about the person you’re mad at and more about you. The way you handle things says a lot about you as a person. Which is why its important to let go.
