Water=Stress

Ask yourself this question, "How heavy is a glass of water?"

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.

And that's the way it is with stress. 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.

Whatever burdens you're carrying now, let them down for a moment if
you can.

Don't pick it up again until after you've rested a while.
