The Mayonnaise Jar

The Mayonnaise Jar

When things in your life seem , almost too much to handle,
When 24 Hours in a day is not enough,
Remember the mayonnaise jar and 2 cups of coffee.

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 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 a 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 - family,
children, health, Friends, and Favorite passions –
Things that 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, house, and 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.

So...

Pay attention to the things that are critical to your happiness.
Play With your children.
Take time to get medical checkups.
Take your partner out to dinner.

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.
'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 couple of cups of coffee with a friend.'

Please share this with other "Golf Balls" I just did.......

What Love means to a 4-8 year old. .

A group of professional people posed this question to a group of 4 to 8 year-olds, 'What does love mean?'

The answers they got were broader and deeper than anyone could have imagined.

The winner was a four year old child whose next door neighbor was an elderly gentleman who had recently lost his wife.

Upon seeing the man cry, the little boy went into the old gentleman's yard, climbed onto his lap, and just sat there.

When his Mother asked what he had said to the neighbor, the little boy said,

'Nothing, I just helped him cry'

Dance....

i love dancing and the many many different types of it. Dance (from French danser, perhaps from Frankish) is an art form that generally refers to movement of the body, usually rhythmic and to music,[1] used as a form of expression, social interaction or presented in a spiritual or performance setting.(WIKIpedia) dancing is mostly used now as performance, as a way to express once feeling as its sometimes hard to say in words.

this shows that no matter what u do u could always have the hobby or chance to express yourself by anyway and dancing is even a passion to some people.
some of the types of dancing would be:

• ballroom dancing
• break dancing
• salsa
• belly dancing
• cha cha cha
• latin dance
• pop,lock and drop (hiphop)
• tango
• there are so many more types of dances.

this group diversity performed for Britain got talent, they took place in that competition and the group consist of brothers and friends from different races and age. They are some still in school college and even university but they come together to share their passion for street dancing and they performed superbly.

Barista

According to Wikipedia a barista is a person, usually a coffee-house employee, who prepares and serves espresso-based coffee drinks.

I have always love coffee and the different types of it, let it be from coffee bean, austin chase or even Starbucks. The coffee that i usually love to have would be the cappuccino, frappucino or the lattes.

this is some of the things that caught my eye when i was looking up for coffees..

hope you enjoy watching it :
