“Never bear more than one kind of trouble at a time. Some people bear three kinds all they have had, all they have now, and all they expect to have.”
— Edward Everett Hale
Simplified Meaning:
It’s about not stressing over past problems, current problems, and future problems all at once. Imagine you're carrying heavy bags: holding many bags will tire you out quickly. If you worry about old mistakes, today's issues, and future troubles all together, it feels like carrying too many bags. Focus on one thing at a time. Deal with what is happening now instead of adding the weight of what happened before or what might happen later. This way, your mind and emotions won't get overwhelmed, making it easier to handle challenges and feel better overall.
