We spend more but have less.
We buy more but enjoy it less.
We watch TV too much, and pray too seldom.
We love too seldom and hate too often.
We've bigger houses and smaller families.
We've more conveniences, but less time.
We've more knowledge, but less judgment.
We've more experts, but more problems.
We've more medicine, but less wellness.
We've more degrees, but less sense.
We've multiplied our possessions, but reduced our values.
We've taller buildings but shorter tempers.
We've 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 done larger things, but not better things.
We've cleaned up the air, but polluted the soul.
We've split the atom, but not our prejudice.
We've learned to rush, but not to wait;
We've higher incomes, but lower morals;
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.
These are days of two incomes, but more divorce;
These are the times of fancier houses, but broken homes.
These are days of quick trips, disposable diapers, throw away morality, one-night stands, overweight bodies, and pills that do everything from cheer, to quiet, to kill.
It is the paradox of time........
