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. ' R( b( S* q9 p- [9 p# _; P- i
you will soon understand that work is a rubber ball.Ifyou drop it,itwell bounce back. * _. D7 r2 V1 E+ j: k$ P; M$ ^
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 w, c- P' Y {8 q; r8 R
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。 / q6 R: f4 ^; X5 X8 c
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。
