Dramatic and emotional events have an affect on our lives much like landslides have an affect on narrow mountain roadsides.
A landslide can be caused by the slightest movement of a pebble or trickle of water. In an instant the earth is rushing with great force down the mountainside, blocking the narrow road below. And like the process of dealing with these life events, if one person alone tries to remove the block, they will work for ages and get nowhere. If they try to ignore it, or go around, the block will still be there. However, if that person has the courage to ask for help and if those asked can come together and work as a harmonious unit, withing only a few days the block will fade into a distant memory.
There will always be landslides in life and on mountains, it is how we deal with them that will determine their effect.
