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.

I couldn’t find any words to express, but I believe you can feel me. And that’s good, enough for me, that’s all I can ask for.

I remember not only this date, I remember all the things you did. I remember everything.

Happy anniversary, love.

如果失約在這生　毋需相見在某年
完完全全共醉一生也願意
完完全全共醉他生也願意

Thanks for everything.

For those who visited jimtkm.com before knew it was more of a technical site rather than a personal blog. Well, this time jimtkm.com will be a pure personal blog. 100% tech free, totally personal.

No, I am still very nerdy in case you are wondering. In fact I have a brand new site just for all my geeky desire need. Allow me to present, Code and Latte. So, for those looking for my technical blog, Code and Latte is what you want.

As for jimtkm.com, this will be where I blog about my thoughts, ideas, rants and things that I find it interesting. Almost everything, almost.

However, here are few things you should be aware of;

• I am not an English writer, I am a coder.
• I am an adult, sometime I use strong inappropriate word.
• I am also a poker player, however I neither encourage gambling nor promoting poker. I will try to put all poker related posts in another page.
• I don’t earn from blogging, I only blog when I am free, I only blog whenever I feel like it. Don’t expect a weekly entry.

Ya, thats all for now. See you soon.
