Putting down your problems! Finally found a way!
What happens when you hold on to problems for too long!!
A professor began his class by holding up a glass with some water in it.
He held it up for all to see; asked the students,' How much do you think this glass weighs?'
'50gms!’.... '100gms!' ......'125gms' ......the students answered.
'I really don't know unless I weigh it,' said the professor,’ but, my question is: What would happen if I held it up like this for a few minutes?'
'Nothing' the students said.
'Ok what would happen if I held it up like this for an hour?' the professor 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?'
'Your arm could go numb, you might have severe muscle stress; paralysis;
Have to go to hospital for sure!'ventured another student; all the students laughed.
'Very good. But during all this, did the weight of the glass change?' asked
The professor. 'No' the students said.
Then what caused the arm ache & the muscle stress?'
The students were puzzled.
'Put the glass down!' said one of the students.
'Exactly!' said the professor.' 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 are not stressed, you wake up every day fresh & strong & can handle any issue, any challenge that comes your way!'
Now this is something, i hve realized recently. I remember reading this article somewhere a few years ago, but i hdnt understood it well that time. Now, when i am going thru' one of teh hardest phase of my life, this one came as a saviour! Sleepless nights at a stretch, losing weight, feeling depressed..... its all coz im holding my troubles for a long long time now...n i shud put them down.....so i put them down.....n i feel extermely relieved.
Yesterday, i fell asleep only after 2-3 hours of restless twisting n turning, which is considerably fast.....compared to keeping awake till u can see the sky turn pink...
This is what i do to put myself to sleep....
as I lie in bed, I recall what i was grateful for that day, or what i was grateful for in my life. I imagine my mom or my dad sitting on your bed, smiling benevolently while holding my hand or gently caressing my forehead as i drift off to sleep....n slowly i fall asleep!

It's not me - 3 Doors Down

The Unicorn's ride - - Eric R. Hughes -
Over your rainbow
A unicorn flew,
He was sent to find me...
He said by you.
"Climb aboard", he whispered,
"We must go for a ride..."
And into a portal of light
We rode inside.
The sky was so blue,
The fields so green,
With each explosion of light
Was a wonderful scene.
So happy we seem
And always together,
There was no end to your dream,
It just went on forever.
Then the unicorn said
"I have one more surprise..."
So we took off quickly
And pierced the sky.
Then I saw you sleeping
And dreaming in your bed...
I caressed your hair gently
And kissed you on your head.
I caressed your hair gently
And kissed you on your head.
The unicorn interrupted...
"I must now get you home,
But now that you've seen her dream,
"I must now get you home,
But now that you've seen her dream,
May you never feel alone."
My heart is feeling heavy,
A fire burns inside.
Thank you so much my darling
For the unicorn's ride.
Thank you so much my darling
For the unicorn's ride.

At the window-----
here i am back at my window, its 23 Jan, 3:00 am. No one is home. And man i am thankful for this. was looking to be alone since morning today...to be alone n cry! may be jus curse myself and kick myself back to reality!
the roads are empty, most of the buildings around me are dark, except a few windows with lights on, i guess they sleep wiht the lights on....fear of darkness, never had one...bt i have a fear of loneliness...NOt the loneliness that i am in now, but the loneliness that comes over you when you are amongst a crowd, the loneliness that you feel when u are with your freinds, or family...yet u miss that one person, and ur life is miserable and loenly without that single person!!!
yea! m lonely...today, yesterday, even tomorrow..coz the emptiness that some people create never fillsup, no matter how may songs, how many movies, how many freinds, how many shopping sprees you put in the emptiness, it never fills....
i am also restless, my soul knows no rest, no peace...there is no special reason.....tomorrow..... will have a better day..hopefully...
sometimes sitting here, with everything so quiet... i wonder..what if i die right at this moment...when would be the earliest someone would find out, next morning prbably, i dunno if anyone would be affected by tht...my immidiate family? yea..fr sme days probably....but later on..slowly every1's life cmes back on track!
As long as u r alive...there is pain...nuthin after death!
