Put Down The Glass

A professor began his class by holding a glass with some water in it. He held it up for all to see & asked the students " How much do you think the glass weighs?" o

iiiiiii 50 gms! 100 gms! 125 gms! the students answered


I really don't know unless I weigh it said the prof, but my question is: What would happen if I held it up like this for a few minutes? o

Nothing. The students said


Ok : What would happen if I held it up like this for an hour? the prof asked

Your arm would begin to ache. Said one of the students

You're right, now what would happen if I held it for a day? o

Your arm could go numb, you might have severe muscle stress, paralysis, have to go to hospital for sure! answered another student, all the students laughed


Very good. But during all this, did the weigh of the glass changed? asked the prof

NO. The students said

Then what caused the arm ache & the muscle stress? o

The students were puzzled

Put the glass down! said one of them


Exactly. Said the prof. 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 ( problems ) in your life, but EVEN MORE IMPORTANT to " put them down " at the end of every day before you go to sleep

That way you're not stressed, you wake up everyday fresh and strong and can handle any issue, any challenge that comes your way


Remember to PUT DOWN THE GLASS TODAY

You have a way in commenting on things

I couldn't stop laughing at your broken glass

Don't you think it's better to have a new one each day instead of keeping the old one

May Allah bless dear brother for your kind words

I know it's very hard to put down the glass by the end of each day

But I guess the outcome worth trying

Dear enigma
Its lovely , great , thanks alot .

Thank you enigma for the helpful subject.
I think if you hold the glass for an hour , you would feel of some difficulties or may be pain to put it down.
and that what actually we face in our life we find it difficult to stop thinking of our problems directly, that's why it takes time

For me its not a big deal

>>>>>>>>>> a cold-minded girl

But I'll pass this thread to my sister .. Coz she lets her problems

wights tons on her shoulders..

She really needs to put it down.
