Too many pebbles in the jar

...and too much sand
To understand what I mean you have to read the comment I got from Herr Klantz on yesterdays blip. Thank you HK. I have to empty the jar and start from the beginning. I just have to put a little more sand first, but then... I promise...

(Home at 6.30 pm. A bath. Some fast blipping. Dinner. More work...)

Here´s HK´s comment:

Made me think of this:

The professor and a jar with golf balls
A professor stood before his philosophy class and had some items in front of him. When the class began, wordlessly, he picked up a very large and empty mayonnaise jar and proceeded to fill it up to the edge of the 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 it a bit easy. The pebbles rolled into the open areas between the golf balls. Again he asked the students if the jar was full. They agreed that 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 and poured the entire contents into the jar, effectively filling the remaining 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. Family, children, health and others that are passionate in your heart. Such as - if everything else was lost and only they remained, would still be your life. The pebbles are the other things that matter like a home, job and car. The sand is everything else - the small stuff.
If you put the sand into the jar first, he continued, it is not possible to make 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, there is no room for what is important to you.

So ... watch for it to be essential to your happiness. Spend time with your children. Take your partner out to dinner. Dedicate a game to about it that makes you passionate. Soon enough, you can clean the house and other things that are less important. Take care of the golf balls first - the things that really matter. Restore what is most important in your life. The rest is just sand.
One of the students raised her hand and inquired what the coffee represented. The professor smiled.
- I'm glad you asked. It just goes to show you that no matter how full your life may seem, there's always room for a coffee with a friend.
