hey guys.. i found this frm somewhere... take a neutral
viewpoint and read thru this... it's so real and sad for us to see
it really happening...
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 judgement; more experts, but more problems; more medicine,
but less wellness.
We drink too much, spend too recklessly, laugh too little, drive
too fast, get too angry too quickly, stay up too late, get up too
tired, read too little, watch TV too much, and pray too
seldom.
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 done larger things, but not better things.
We've cleaned up the air, but polluted the soul; we've split the
atom, but not our prejudice. We write more, but learn less; we plan
more, but accomplish less.
We've learned to rush, but not to wait; we have higher incomes,
but, lower morals.
We build more computers to hold more information to produce more
copies than ever, but have less communication; We've become long on
quantity, but short on quality.
These are the days of two incomes, but
more divorce; of fancier houses, but broken homes.
These are the days of quick trips, disposable diapers, throw away
morality, one night stands, overweight bodies, and pills that do
everything from cheer, to quiet, to kill. Where are we heading
....?
If we die tomorrow, the company that we are working for could
easily replace us in a matter of days. But the family we left
behind will feel the loss for the rest of their lives.
And come to think of it, we pour ourselves more into work than to
our family an unwise investment indeed.
the ones highlighted are so real.
