Thought some of you might like.
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 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, yet more problems, more
medicine, but less wellness.
We drink too much, smoke too much, spend too
recklessly, laugh too little, drive too fast, get too
angry, stay up too late, get up too tired, read too
little, watch TV too much, and pray too seldom. 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 a new neighbor. We
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 conquered 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 build more computers to
hold more information, to produce more copies than
ever, but we communicate less and less.
These are the times of fast foods and slow digestion,
big men and small character, steep profits and shallow
relationships. These are the days of two incomes but
more divorce, fancier houses, but broken homes. These
are days of quick trips, disposable diapers, throwaway
morality, one night stands, overweight bodies, and
pills that do everything from cheer, to quiet, to
kill. It is a time when there is much in the showroom
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 share this insight, or
to just hit delete.
Remember, spend some time with your loved ones,
because they are not going to be around forever.
Remember, say a kind word to someone who looks up to
you in awe, because that little person soon will grow
up and leave your side. Remember, to give a warm hug
to the one next to you, because that is the only
treasure you can give with your heart and it doesn't
cost a cent. Remember, to say, "I love you" to your
partner and your loved ones, but most of all mean it.
A kiss and an embrace will mend hurt when it comes
from deep inside of you. Remember to hold hands and
cherish the moment for someday that person will not be
there again. Give time to love, give time to speak,
and give time to share the precious thoughts in your
mind.
Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take,
but by the moments that take our breath away
