J is for Juggling
Life
I am sharing here a wonderful article I had read on internet once but have loved ever since:

This was written by Brian G. Dyson the CEO of Coca-Cola
(from 1988 until 1994).
Imagine life as a game in which you are juggling some five balls
in the air. You name them – Work – Family –Health – Friends – 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.
