Life's ParadoxMUST READ!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 lessWe have bigger houses and smaller families,More conveniences,but less time;
We have more degrees,but less sense;
More knowledge,but less judgement;
More experts,yet more problems,
More medicines,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.
Wehave multipied our possessions,but reduced our values.
We talk too much, love too seldom, but hate too often.
We've learned how to make a living,but not a life,
We've added years to our life not life to years.
We've been all the way to the moon and back, but
Have trouble crossing the street to meet new neighbour.
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 learned to rush,but not to wait.We build more computers to hold information
To produce more copies than ever, but
we communicate
Less and lessThese are the times of fast food 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, pills that do everything
From cheer,to quiet, to kill.
It is a time when there is much in the show window
And nothing in the stockroom.
A time when technology can bring letter to you,and a time when you choose either to
share this insight, or jusr 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 anymore.
Give time to Love, give time to speak, give time to share the precious thoughts in your mind.
I
miss GP so much!
cause a day of
MATHEMATICS make me MAD!
