A waterfall is an impressive natural spectacle. The water, which is still flowing so softly and delicately, suddenly takes on a tremendous force through the fall. The greater the fall of the water, the harder it seems. So, when I stand under a waterfall with the water coming from just above me, it is a pleasant shower. But if the water falls from, say, over 20m, it hurts (or so I imagine). So the hardness is directly proportional to the height of the fall. This can also happen in life: the deeper we fall due to difficult circumstances, the more hardened our heart can become. The only remedy is steps - in the water example, the river falls from one step to the next and is no longer hard. For us: it is also best to work through difficult things in smaller steps, stages - this way we can avoid hardened hearts and remain soft in spite of the difficult things. Perhaps this comparison will help you or someone you know.
I wish you an extraordinary day!
