THE PARADOX OF OUR TIME

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 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 the 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 just hit delete.
