yay !! finally had time 2 do some of my favourite stuff... xD it sure was great !! & talking abt this reminds me of a story. it goes like this:

When things in ur life seem 2 much 2 handle, when 24hrs in a day r not enough, remember the jar & the coffee...

A professor stood b4 his class & had some items in front of him. When class began, he wordlessly picked up a large empty jar & proceeded 2 fill it wif golf balls. He then asked the students if the jar was full. They agreed.

The professor then picked up a box of pebbles & poured them in2 the jar. He shook it lightly. The pebbles rolled in2 the open areas between the golf balls. He asked the students again if the jar was full. They agreed it was.

The professor next took a box of sand & poured it in2 the jar. Of course, the sand filled up everything else. He asked again if the jar's full. The students replied wif an infamous "yes".

The professor then produced 2 cups of coffee from under the table & poured all its contents in2 the jar, effectively filling the empty space between the sand. The students laughed.

"Now," said the professor, as the laughter subsided, "I want u 2 recognize that this jar represents ur life. The golf balls r the important things-- ur family, faith, health, passions, friends. Things that if everything else were lost & only they remained, ur life'll still b full. The pebbles r the other things that matter. ur job, house, car. The sand is everything else. The small stuff. "

"If u put the sand in2 the jar 1st," he continued, "There's no room 4 the pebbles nor the golf balls. The same goes 4 life. If u spend all ur time & energy on the small stuff, u'll never have room 4 the things that r important. Pay attention 2 the things that r critical 2 ur happiness. Play wif ur children. Take time 2 get medical checkups. Take ur partner out 4 dinner. There'll always b time 2 clean the house & fix the disposal. Take care of the golf balls 1st, things that really matter. The rest is juz sand."

1 student raised her hand & asked what the coffee represented. The professor smiled. "I'm glad u asked. It juz goes 2 show u that no matter how full ur life seems, there's always room 4 a cup of coffee wif a friend."

well... that's it !! so how was the story ?? hope u loved it. haha... xD
