DE PARADOX OF OUR TIME!

DE PARADOX OF OUR TIME!

De paradox of our time: we've bigger houses but smaller families; more conveniences but less time; more degrees but less sense

More knowledge but less judgement; more expects but more problems; more medicine but less wellness

We've multiplied our possessions but reduce our values; we hate too often but love seldom

We've learned how to make a living but not life; we've aged years to life but not life to years

We've conquered outer space but not inner space; we've done longer things but not better things

We've cleaned up de air but polluted de soul; we've split de atom but not our prejudice

We write more but learn less; we plan more but accomplished less; we've learnt to crush but not to wait

We've higher incomes but lower morals; more food but less appeasement

We've built more computers to hold more information but less communication

We spend more but have less; buy more but enjoy it less; more leisure but less fun; more kinds of food but less nutrition

These are de times of world peace but domestic warfare; days of two incomes but more divorce; of fancier houses but broken homes
