I received this by ccmail at work today; read it and have a think it is amazing how we forget what things are truly important in everday life. Enjoy
<h4>The paradox of our time in history is that we have taller buildings, but shorter tempers; wider freeways, but narrower viewpoints; </h4> <h4>We spend more, but have less; We buy more, but enjoy less.</h4> <h4>We have bigger houses and smaller families; More conveniences, but less time;</h4> <h4>We have more degrees, but less sense, More knowledge but less judgement;</h4> <h4>More experts, but more problems; More medicine, but less wellness.</h4> <h4></h4> <h4>We have multiplied our possessions, but reduced our values.</h4> <h4>We talk too much, love to seldom and hate too often. </h4> <h4>Weâve learned how to make a living, but not a life; Weâve added years to life, not life to years.</h4> <h4>Weâve conquered outer space, but not inner space; Weâve cleaned up the air, but polluted the soul;</h4> <h4>Weâve split the atom, but not our prejudice; We have higher incomes, but lower morals;</h4> <h4>Weâve become long on quantity, but short on quality, These are the times of tall men, and short character;</h4> <h4>Steep profits and shallow relationships, These are times of world peace, but domestic warfare;</h4> <h4>More leisure, but less fun; More kinds of food, but less nutrition.</h4> <h4>These are the days of two incomes, but more divorce; Fancier houses, but more broken homes;</h4> <h4>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 to make a difference.</h4> <h4>Johnsy</h4>
