It is amazing how nature is so very powerful! Of course, only when we surrender! I have been observing my son for years. He has developed this habit of sleeping tight – especially when he is really tensed! After a long sleep, he is back in action! Did not understand the beauty of this till I came across the following in our good old scripture, today – obviously by accidental reading! What it left me with is more than I can chew 😉
There are ten strong things…
Iron is strong but fire melts it;
Fire is strong but water quenches it;
Water is strong but the clouds evaporate it;
Clouds are strong but the wind drives them away;
Man is strong, but fears cast him down;
Fear is strong, but sleep overcomes it;
Sleep is strong yet death is stronger;
But loving kindness survives death!
