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.
; s/ a( @. X$ Y4 E$ Cyou will soon understand that work is a rubber ball.Ifyou drop it,itwell bounce back. ; X) P( t n8 W2 I+ M7 ~; h5 ^- }
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. - B( @4 T0 G) u0 P1 s

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。 " j" ]" d7 p6 Z- H r8 z6 a8 s
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。 ( b. a- r! I: n* U
