人生游戏五只球Good Thoughts to Keep in Mind（1/2）

Iage life as a gawhich you are jugglg so five ballsthe air. You na the: Work, Faily, Health, Friends, Spirit. And you’re keepg all of thesethe air. You will soon uand that work is a rubber ball. If you drop it, it will bounce back. But the other four balls—faily, health, friends and spirit are ade of gss. If you drop one of these, it will be irrevocably scuffed, arked, nicked, daaged or even shattered. They will never be the sa. You t uand that and strive for banceyour life.

How?

Don’t undere your worth by parg yourself to others. It is becae we are different that each ofis special.

Don’t set yoals by what other people dee iportant. Only you know what is best for you.

Don’t take frahe thgs closest to your heart. Clg to the as you would to your life, for without the, life is angless.

Don’t let your life slip through yers by livgthe past or for the future. By livg your life one day at a ti, you live all the days of your life.

Don’t give up when you still have sothg to give. Nothg is really over until the ont you s tryg.

Don’t be afraid to adit that you are less than perfect. It is this fragile thread that bdseach together.

Don’t be afraid to enunter risks. It is by takg ces that we learn how to be brave.

Don’t shut love out of your life by sayg it’s ipossible to fd. The quickest way to receive love is to give; the fastest way to lose love is to hold it too tightly; and the best way to keep love is to give it gs.

Don’t run through life so fast that you fet not only where you’ve been, but also where yog.

Don’t fet, a person’s greatest eotional need is to feeppreciated.

Don’t be afraid to learn. Knowledge is weightless, a treasure youalways carry easily.

Doi or words carelessly. herbe retrieved.

Life is not a race, but a jouro be savored each step of the way.

Yesterday is history, Toorrow is a ystery and Today is a gift: that’s why we call it“The Present”.

试着把生活想象成一个游戏——在空中抛接五只球。它们是：工作、家庭、健康、友谊和精神。当你尽力想把它们保持在空中时，很快，你就会发现，唯有工作是只橡皮球，抛之于地，还会反弹回来。而另外四只——家庭、健康、友谊和精神都是玻璃球，如果将其中任一只抛至地上，不可避免会留下疤痕、裂缝、受损甚至粉身碎骨，毫无办法将之复原。因而，你必须懂得维系生活的均衡。

如何维系生活的均衡呢？

切勿盲目与他人比较，而低估自身的价值。须知，人与人之间有差异，才显出个性。

切勿视他人的追求为自己的目标，唯有你自己知晓自身所需。

切勿漠视心灵深处的东西。珍视它们，如同生命；反之，生活将空洞黯然。

切勿让生命从指间悄然流逝，充斥昨日的忧伤和明天的憧憬。活在今天，将会让每个日子充满阳光。

切勿屈服认输，一息尚存，奋斗不止。

切勿妄自菲薄，我们各有所长，亦各有所短，才会彼此相依。
