"Kuch nahi bigaad sakti is pathar ka"
Well, here's your answer Rudra.
Imagine you're a huge rock sitting high on top of a mountain. Nothing frightens you or moves you. You're tough, the storms of a thousand years haven't even scratched your surface, though they've worn away lesser rocks to pebbles. Then one chilly day, an apparently harmless drop of water brightly splashes on you, and trickles it's way into a deep crack in your center, which has been there since you were born but has been overlooked by the rains winds until now. What will you do?
You will do nothing.
You who have stood up against centuries of floods and tornadoes, have nothing to fear from one tiny drop of water. The next day, the thermometer drops to zero and the drop of water freezes in your center. The freezing causes it to expand and the expansion hurts you. Since nothing has ever has ever before been able to weaken your strength, how do you feel about a drop of water expanding inside you, and threatening to crack you in two?
