Hi All,
Some things need to be shared. And this one speaks for itself.
Bill Elliott
Time Paradox
The paradox of our time in
history is that we have taller
buildings, but shorter tempers;
wider freeways, but narrower
viewpoints;
we spend more, but have less;
we buy more, but enjoy it less.
We have bigger houses and
smaller families;
more conveniences, but less
time;
we have more degrees, but less
sense;
more knowledge, but less
judgment;
more experts, but more
problems;
more medicine, but less
wellness.
We have multiplied our
possessions, but reduced our
values.
We talk too much, love too
seldom, and hate too often.
We've learned how to make a
living, but not a life;
we've added years to life, 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
neighbor.
We've conquered outer space,
but not inner space;
we've cleaned up the air, but
polluted the soul;
we've split the atom, but not
our prejudice.
We have 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 days of two
incomes, but more divorce; 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 to just hit delete!
