Imagine life as a game in which you are juggling five balls
in the air. You name them: work, family, health, friends, and spirit, and
you're keeping all of them in the air. You will soon understand that work is a
__41___ 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 __42___
for balance in your life.
How? Don't undermine your worth by ___43__ yourself with
others. It is because we are different that each of us is special. Don't set
your __44___ by what other people deem important. Only you know what is best
for you. Don't take for granted the things closest to your heart. ___45__ to
them as you would to life, for without them, life is meaningless. Don't let
life slip through your fingers by living in the past or for the future. By
living your life one day at a time you live all the days of your life. Don't
give up when you still have something to give. Nothing is really over until the
moment you stop trying. Don’t be afraid to admit that you are ___46__ perfect.
It is this fragile thread that binds us together. Don't be afraid to encounter
risks. It is by taking chances that we learn to be brave. Don't shut love out
of your life by saying it's ___47__ to find. The quickest way to receive love
is to give; the fastest way to lose love is to hold it too __48___; and the
best way to keep love is to give it wings. Don't run __49___ life so fast that
you forget not only where you've been, but also where you are going. Don't
forget that a person's greatest emotional need is to feel appreciated. Don't
use time or words carelessly. Neither can be retrieved. Life is not a race, but
a journey to be savored each step of the way.
