THE
PARADOX OF OUR TIMES

 

Is
that we have taller buildings, but shorter tempers

 

Wider
freeways, but narrower viewpoints

 

We
spend more, but we have less.

 

 

 

We
have bigger houses, but smaller families

 

More
conveniences, but less time.

 

We
have more degrees, but less sense

 

More
knowledge, but less judgement

 

More
experts, but more problems

 

More
medicines, but less wellness.

 

 

 

We
have multiplied our possessions, but reduced our values.

 

We
talk too much, love too seldom, and hate too often

 

We
have learnt how to make a living, but not a life.

 

We
have added years to life, but not life to years.

 

We've
been all the way to the moon and back

 

But
have trouble crossing the street to meet the new
neighbour.

 

We
have conquered outer space, but not inner space.

 

We've
cleaned up the air, but polluted our soul.

 

We've
split the atom, but not our prejudice.

 

We've
higher incomes, but lower morals.

 

We've
become long on quantity but short on quality.

 

 

 

These
are the times of tall men, and short character;

 

Steep
profits, and shallow relationships.

 

These
are the times of world peace, but domestic warfare,

 

More
leisure, but less fun; more kinds of food, but less
nutrition.

 

 

 

These
are the days of two incomes, but more divorces;

 

Of
fancier houses, but broken homes.

 

It
is a time when there is much in the show window, and nothing in the
stockroom.

 

 

 

A
time when technology can bring this letter to you,

 

 

 

And
a time when you can choose,

 

 

 

Either
to make a difference .... or just hit, delete.
