Stress.... feeling stresss even to handle it?

Now, lets put love topic aside first. i'll come back to it when necessary. the topic which runs in my mind now is STRESS! Lets define stress. according to www.onelook.com, the quick definition of stress is difficulty that causes worry or emotional tension. well, we are gonna talk about this stress and not anything else.

i realize people tend to get stressed up easily. traffic jam, stress. long queue, stress. no small change, stress. lab work, stress. there are a lot more stuffs which can make one stressed up.

people use to relate busyness with stress. if the person is busy, somehow, he/she will be stressed trying to finish his/her assignment. well, actually, busyness is not directly proportional to stress. one can be very busy but by being very organized, he/she can accomplish whatever he/she wanted to accomplish at the end of the day. we dun have to go far. lets take the Prime Minister of Singapore, Lee Hsein Loong, as an example. If he's stressed up everyday, most probably more Singaporeans would migrate to other countries and the general election would be very much earlier than expected. He is stressed, i'm not saying he isn't. He is. But the way he handles it makes him the top man in Singapore. that's how we should be.

some people just can't handle stress. They can be one sweet person but when they are stressed up, even devil will lose to them, if u know what i mean. i came across a person who even said, "Why should i care about others when i myself am stressed!" and the other one who doesn't wanna be with friends when the person is stressed. These are just simple examples which i did come across. y r people handling stress in this manner. everyone will experience stress one day. worse still if everyday. we should talk to our friends or someone to let go our stress. We must not let stress to take over us! We should control stress rather than stress controlling us.

if we cannot handle stress, we can never live the way we want in this world. be calm and when stressed, lets find ways to overcome it, not to keep thinking about it. if we can't, talk to others. others might have gone thru the same thing some years before. haha. and work smart to overcome our stress. Do one thing at any one time. settle it before going to the next matter rather than jumping here n there and messing up things. sometimes, meditation does help. be calm, control yourselves and you can achieve more than you expect!
