Paradoxes of Our Times

Nowadays…
We have bigger houses and smaller families;
We have more conveniences, but less time;
We have more degrees, but less common sense;
We have more knowledge, but less judgment;
We have more experts, but more problems;
We have multiplied our possessions, but reduced our values.
We talk too much, love too little and lie 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 spend more, but have less; we buy more, but enjoy it less.
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 learned to rush, but not to wait;
We have higher incomes, but lower morals.
We spend too recklessly, laugh too little,
.......drive too fast, get angry too quickly,
.......stay up too late, get up too tired,
.......read too little, watch TV too often,
.......and pray too seldom.

The picture might seem dark!
But…
While running around through life,
let’s open our eyes, let’s open our heart.

There is a new perspective…
It’s never too late to start Being, Loving, Living!
