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. ' v, z8 H! b( V& c. N& k
you will soon understand that work is a rubber ball.Ifyou drop it,itwell bounce back. 4 o+ p; f& `; ^: ]& _ S
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. # s+ P/ ~, |9 h: W$ S2 T
They will never be the same.

想象生命是一种往空中抛五个球的游戏，你把这五个球分别取名为：工作、家庭、健康、朋友和心灵，而且你要努力不让它们落地。你很快会了解到工作是一个橡皮球。
5 i# }9 w, d+ t: w, e如果你让它落地了，它还会反弹起来。但是，家庭、健康、朋友、和心灵这四个球是用玻璃做成的，如果你让它们掉到地上，它们将会不可避免地遭到磨损，留下印记、划痕，摔破甚至碎落一地。 / y' D+ h6 u; L D# \8 a' V
