Why not just put it down?

Just before Christmas, I discovered the most thought-provoking little book.
It's called Weight by Jeanette Winterson and is part of the Myths Series.

Weight tells the story of the myth of Atlas holding up the weight of the world on his shoulders. The author takes many interesting liberties and poetic license, which gives a "human" character to Atlas, Hercules, Hera and others.

If you carry a burden, if you have taken on too many responsibilities, think you can do it all, don't know how to let go... read this book.

Then ask yourself WHY NOT JUST PUT IT DOWN?
