The lesson of 5 balls

Salam dears,
Just nak share one of my favorite words of wisdom, a very good reminder of what should be the priority in life:

"Imagine life is a game in which you are juggling five balls. The balls are called work, family, health, friends, and integrity. And you're 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, 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." ~ From the book "Suzanne's Diary to Nicholas" by James Patterson

Betul kan kata kata tu? Kalau keja leh cari lain, leh tukar keja sesuka hati pun takpa, kalau tak berjaya kat satu tempat leh try kat tempat lain plak.  Tapi kalau family & friends, skali kita buat silap atau abaikan habislah, tak kan sama lagi dah... mungkin leh berbaik semula, but things will never be the same again...umpama pinggan kaca yang dah pecah, mungkin leh gam cantum cantum balik tapi kesan retak tu akan sentiasa ada sampai bila bila.

By the way, James Patterson is my favorite writer.  Kalau baca buku dia rasa cam tanak stop.  Korang pernah baca tak buku dia? Bestttt ooooo, recommended if u like genre crime/thiller :-)
