Fill Up Your Wheelbarrow!

The wheelbarrow is your life, the pebbles are everything the world throws at you, and the hill doesn't get gentler because you're tired. JB Minton's parable is blunt about what happens if you never stop to empty the barrow — it's not metaphorical exhaustion, it's the depression, the addiction, the divorce, the disease that pressure left unmanaged actually produces. His prescription is equally blunt: meditate twenty minutes, twice a day, on purpose, or keep pushing uphill until you tip.
