you will soon understand that work is a rubber ball.Ifyou drop it,itwell bounce back. 9 n3 {/ x: p; }* W7 i
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. 3 z W( I# h/ e+ q8 x) d6 l
