text: do u agree with this quote? "dont ask for a light load, but rather ask for a strong back"? why or why not?... yes! it basically means dont always put things on others, take responsibility for things yourself and deal with them rather than using excuses.  i.e dont ask to be given a lighter load to carry (dont whinge about problems) rather, ask for a strong back (ask for the strength to deal with the problems yourself).  the power of positivity. it really is the way forward, dont we all hate to listen to people moaning about their problems all the time? those people should be taught this when they are at school! lol  there you go!
