Imagine Life as a Game in which you are juggling 5 balls in the air......
You name them: Work, Family, Health, Friends and
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 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. They will never be the same. You must understand that
and strive for balance in your life. How?
Don't undermine your worth by comparing yourself with
others. It is because we are different that each of us is special.
Don't set
your goals by what other people deem important. Only you know what is best for
you.
Don't take for granted the things closest to your heart.
Cling to them as they were your life, for without them, life is meaningless.
Don't let your life slip through your fingers by
living in the past or for the future. By living your life one day at a time,
you live ALL the days of your life.
Don't give up when you still have something to give.
Nothing is really over until the moment you stop trying.
Don't be afraid to admit that you are less than
perfect. It is this fragile thread that binds us to each together.
Don't be afraid to encounter risks. It is by taking
chances that we learn how to be brave.
Don't shut love out of your life by saying it's
impossible to find time. The quickest way to receive love is to give it; the
fastest way to lose love is to hold it too tightly; and the best way to keep
love is to give it wings.
Don't run through life so fast that you forget not
only where you've been, but also where you are going.
Don't forget, a person's greatest emotional need is to
feel appreciated. Don't be afraid to learn. Knowledge is weightless, a treasure
you can always carry easily.
Don't use time or words carelessly. Neither can be
retrieved. Life is not a race, but a journey to be enjoyed each step of the
way.
Yesterday is History, Tomorrow is a Mystery, and Today
is a gift-- that's why we call it
"The Present!"
