Anecdote: The Humble Cup of Tea

On a chilly morning, Priya sat with her grandmother, sipping tea. As she complained about her hectic life, her grandmother quietly poured more tea into Priya’s cup until it overflowed. Startled, Priya exclaimed, “It’s too much!” Her grandmother smiled and said, “That’s your life. You keep pouring in more without removing what’s already there. Learn to let go, and your cup won’t spill over.”

Moral: Sometimes, we need to release what overwhelms us to create space for peace.
