Priorities in life.

There are two types of people (and it has nothing to do with race, color, creed, religion, ethnic origin etc),...those
that work hard and long hours providing food, shelter, education, and care to their friends, relatives and loved
ones,...and those that suck off our breasts.

There are far too many able bodied, able minded POS's sucking off the breasts of hard working animals beyond
what they deserve. There are animals,...and there are parasites. Always has been, always will be. Law of the
Universe I think.

Who is who, is sometimes very difficult to discover, because some parasites end up saving your life. What goes
around, comes around,...and most chit gets degraded eventually.

Subject: The Rest Is Just Sand....
A philosophy professor stood before his class and had some items in front of him. When class began, wordlessly
he picked up a large empty mayonnaise jar and proceeded to fill it with rocks, rocks about 2" in diameter. He then
asked the students if the jar was full?

They agreed that it was.

So the professor then picked up a box of pebbles and poured them into the jar. He shook the jar lightly. The
pebbles, of course, rolled into the open areas between the rocks. He then asked the students again if the jar was
full.

They agreed it was. The students laughed.

The professor picked up a box of sand and poured it in the jar. Of course, the sand filled up everything else.

"Now," said the professor, "I want you to recognize that this is your life. The rocks are the important things - your
family, your partner, your health, your children - anything that is so important to you that if it were lost, you would
be nearly destroyed. The pebbles are the other things that matter, like your job, your house, your car. The sand is
everything else. The small stuff."

"If you put the sand into the jar first, there is no room for the pebbles or the rocks. The same goes for your life. If
you spend all your energy and time on the small stuff, you will never have room for the things that are important to
you.

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 dancing. There will always be time to go to work, clean the house, give a dinner
party and fix the disposal."

"Take care of the rocks first - the things that really matter. Set your priorities."

"The rest is just sand."
