This is an excerpt from a book i love by James Patterson called Suzanne's Diary for Nicholas.
.......................................................................................................................................
“Imagine life is a game in which you are juggling 5 balls. The balls are called work, health, friends, family and integrity. And you are keeping all of them in the air; but one day, you finally come to understand that work is a rubber ball. If you drop it, it will bounce back. The other four balls, family, health, friends and integrity are made of glass. If you drop one of these, it will be irrevocably scuffed, nicked perhaps even shattered. And once you truly understand, the lesson of the five balls, you will have the beginnings of balance in your life”.
