I
think
we all need
to learn a
lesson
from this:
A college
professor was doing a
demonstration to his students. He had
a big glass
jar. He put
several big rocks
in it. He asked his students
'Can
anything else fit in here?'
They all replied 'No.'
Then he put small pebbles
in the jar. Several students gave a chuckle
realizing they were
wrong. The
professor asked again 'Can
anything else fit in here?'
They all replied 'No.'
Then he poured a bag of sand in the jar. This time almost all of the
students
let out an almost
laugh. Then he said
'The rocks are the important
things in
life; your family, friends, etc.' 'The pebbles are the minor things in life which
come after the rocks.' 'The sand grains stand for all of the
unnessacary things
in life.' 'If you were to put all the sand grains in first [the unnessacary things],
then the pebbles [the minor things], then the rocks [the important things],
it
wouldn't fit.
Therefore, you have to realize
that family
and friends come first.
