I love that jar analogy. Excellent life lesson.

I have heard this demonstration once before through my sister, she too picked it up from a philosophy lesson. I stopped here mainly because I wanted to say ‘thank you’, this lesson is one we should always remember. Have a blessed Mothers day and know I am very grateful for your existence.

I have always tried to remember that my husband, children, and grandchildren are the most important things in my life. But sometimes I do let the “sand” in my life overwhelm me. Thanks for the reminder!

That is a great parable! I'd like to post it to one of my blogs - maybe Life is Like Art, it would be perfect for that blog. Where did you find that story and could I reprint a portion of it if it's yours????? I promise, promise to link back to you!!! Terri aka PopArtDiva™, who knows a good thing when she sees it!

This is a nice reminder because I am sometimes guilty of letting the “small stuff” overwhelm me. My husband and daughter and grandson are my BASKETBALLS!
But they wouldn’t fit inside a mayonnaise jar, now would they?

The small things in life are what make life! I would love to share a cup of coffee with you someday, Eileen. :0)

Very nice reminder Eileen. The last part gave me a much needed chuckle.

Thanks!
