人生游戏5只球
Good Thoughts to Keep in Mind
布莱恩？戴森 / Bryan Dyson
Imagine life as a game in which you are juggling some 5 balls in the air. You name them： work， family， health， friends， spirit. And you’re keeping all of these in the air. You will soon understand that work is a rubber ball. If you drop it， it will bounce back. But the other 4 balls—family， health， friends and spirit are made of glass. If you drop one of these， it will be irrevocably scuffed， marked， nicked， damaged or even shattered. They will never be the same. You must understand that and strive for balance in your life.
