Then, the important thing is that you should try to be outgoing. If you're outgoing, you would become very popular. Remember, nobody wants to make friends with a shy person.

One day, a teacher was having a class. He held up a glass of water and asked the class, "How heavy do you think this glass of water is "
The student gave many different answers. Some said it was 20g, some said it was 50g, while others might say it was 500g. "It does not matter on the weight itself. It depends on(取决于) how long you hold (握住) it. If I hold it for a minute, it is OK. If I hold it for an hour, I will have an ache(疼痛) in my right arm. If I hold it for a day, you will have to take me to the hospital. It is exactly the same weight, but the longer you hold it, the heavier it becomes."
"Do you know why If we carry our burdens all the time, sooner or later, we will not be able to carry on, for the burden becoming heavier and heavier."
"What you have to do is to put the glass down, rest for a while before holding it up again." The teacher said.
We have to put down the burden sometimes, so that we can be refreshed(神清气爽) and are able to carry on again.
