A Sense of Purpose

☪

A psychologist walked around a room while teaching stress management to an audience. As she raised a glass of water, everyone expected they’d be asked the “half empty or half full” question. Instead, with a smile on her face, she inquired: “How heavy is this glass of water?”Answers called out ranged from 8 oz. to 20 oz.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. In each case, the weight of the glass doesn’t change, but the longer I hold it, the heavier it becomes.” She continued, “The stresses and worries in life are like that glass of water. Think about them for a while and nothing happens. Think about them a bit longer and they begin to hurt. 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 think this just changed my life.

“… will let it continue to operate as an independent business.”

Here you my followers.

calm your titties~ <3

Oh, good… *Sighs so loud that anyone in a ten mile radius can hear me*

So all this means is that Tumblr got over a billion dollars and they still get to do whatever they want.

Friendly reminder that

orderlybunker:

Tumblr will remain independent

Yahoo bought it because Tumblr was getting too expensive

The only thing changing will be the one’s legally owning Tumblr

There will remain absolutely no restrictions on gifs/fics/pictures/edits/porn/terms and conditions

The terms and conditions will remain the same

Tumblr’s options were to shut Tumblr down or get funds
