Something to think about.

Hey guys!

The Mayonnaise Jar and 2 Cups of Coffee‏

When things in your life seem almost too much to handle, when 24 hours in a day are not enough, remember the mayonnaise jar and the 2 cups of coffee.

A professor stood before his philosophy class and had some items in front of him. When the class began, he wordlessly picked up a very large and empty mayonnaise jar and proceeded to fill it with golf balls. He then asked the students if the jar was full. They agreed that it was. The professor then picked up a box of pebbles and poured them into the jar He shook the jar lightly. The pebbles rolled into the open areas between the golf balls. He then asked the students again if the jar was full. They agreed it was.

The professor next picked up a box of sand and poured it into the jar. Of course, the sand filled up everything else. He asked once more if the jar was full. The students responded with an unanimous 'yes.'

The professor then produced two cups of coffee from under the table and poured the entire contents into the jar effectively filling the empty space between the sand. The students laughed. 'Now,' said the professor as the laughter subsided, 'I want you to recognize that this jar represents your life.

The golf balls are the important things---your family, your children, your health, your friends and your favorite passions---and if everything else was lost and only they remained, your life would still be full.

The pebbles are the other things that matter like your job, your house and your car.

The sand is everything else---the small stuff. 'If you put the sand into the jar first,' he continued, 'there is no room for the pebbles or the golf balls.

The same goes for life. If you spend all your time and energy on the small stuff you will never have room for the things that are important to you. 'Pay attention to the things that are critical to your happiness. Spend time with your children. Spend time with your parents. Visit with grandparents. Take time to get medical checkups. Take your spouse out to dinner. Play another 18. There will always be time to clean the house and fix the disposal. Take care of the golf balls first---the things that really matter. Set your priorities. The rest is just sand.'

One of the students raised her hand and inquired what the coffee represented. The professor smiled and said, 'I'm glad you asked.' The coffee just shows you that no matter how full your life may seem, there's always room for a couple of cups of coffee with a friend.'


Cheers!

The Secret.

Hello people!

I decided to start updating again since everyone is asking me to update lets hope i dont get lazy again. lol! Before i say anything i just wanna say The weather these days are getting hotter and hotter as days go by. Hate the stupid weather, cant stand it! Urgh...annoying!! I feel like i get grouchy easily nowadays and i think its cos of the damn weather. Anywayssss....today was a pretty boring day just stayed home all day roasting my ass off. Just finished reading The Secret a book my mum gave me quite some time back but i just started reading it the day before yesterday finished it in 2 days. It was quite interesting makes u look at life from a different perspective and it really makes one think. Dont know if it really works but i guess trying wont hurt. A friend is down from KL will be meeting her for lunch tomorrow. Cant wait cos at least i'll be out of the house dont like staying at home all day. Thats about it for today i'm gonna end today's post with something i read in the book.

"See the things that you want as already yours.
Know that they will come to you at need.
Then let them come.
Don't fret and worry about them.
Don't Think about your lack of them.
Think of them as yours,
as belonging to you,
as already in your possession."

Good night my darlings!
