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. # i6 k! F/ }! M
you will soon understand that work is a rubber ball.Ifyou drop it,itwell bounce back. " ^ ~9 o4 m. L7 l1 W8 U" a
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. , _# l+ X$ m4 v9 t% ^
They will never be the same.

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。
