Paradox of our time

[Guest guest]

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, 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...
