Imagine Iife as a game in which you are juggling some five balls in the air.You name them—work,family,health,friends and spirit and you’re keeping all of these in the air.
" b$ a$ I5 S. B& [# D! c% ^you will soon understand that work is a rubber ball.Ifyou drop it,itwell bounce back. " P1 Z2 k6 Q4 k6 Y# @% @
But the other four balls—family,health,friends and spirit—are made of glass.If you drop one of these,they will be irrevocably scuffed,marked,nicked,damaged or even shattered. 4 a# p( g, z2 j4 H$ ?* t) a& N
