Paradox
- 1. Paradox of Our Times Click for next slide
- 2. Today we have bigger houses, but smaller families. More conveniences, but less time.
- 3. We have more degrees, but less common sense. More knowledge, but less judgment.
- 4. We have more experts, but more problems. More medicine, but less wellness.
- 5. We spend too recklessly, Laugh too little, Drive too fast, Get angry too quickly, Stay up too late, Read too little, Watch TV too much, And ponder too little.
- 6. We’ve multiplied our possessions, but reduced our values. We talk too much, love too little, and lie too often.
- 7. We’ve learned how to make a living, but not a life. We’ve added years to our lives, but not life to our years.
- 8. 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’ve been all the way to the moon and back, But have trouble crossing the street to meet our neighbors. We’ve conquered outer space, But not inner space. We’ve split the atom, But not our prejudices.
- 9. We write more, learn less, plan more, but accomplish less. We’ve learned to rush, but not to wait. We have higher incomes, but lower morals. We build more computers to hold more information, to produce more copies. But have less communication. We are long on quantity, But short on quality. These are the times of fast food and slow digestion. Tall people, and short character.
- 10. More leisure, but less fun. More kinds of foods, but less nutrition. Two incomes, but more divorce. Fancier houses, but more broken homes.
- 11. That’s why I propose that, as of today, you do not keep anything for special occasions, because every day you live is a special occasion. Search for knowledge, read more, sit on your front porch and admire the view without paying attention to the time. Spend more time with your family and friends, eat your favorite foods, and visit the places you love.
- 12. Use your crystal goblets, do not save your best perfume for last, throw a party for no good reason. Life isn’t only about survival. It’s about joy.
- 13. Do not delay anything that adds laughter and joy to your life. Remove from your vocabulary phrases like “one of these days” and “someday.” Let’s write that letter we thought of writing “one of these days.” Let’s tell our families and friends how much we love them.
- 14. If you’re too busy to take the time to send this message to someone you love, and you tell yourself you will send it “ one of these days”… You missed the point! believe me…
