Five Balls of Life - Brian Dyson

This quote was added by user73699
Imagine life as a game in which you are juggling some five balls in the air. You name them work, family, health, friends and spirit. 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.
