Today we have bigger houses yet smaller families
More convenience, but less time

We Have More degrees, but less common senseMore knowledge, but less judgement

We have more experts, but more problemsMore medicine, but less good health

We spend too recklesslyLaugh too littleDrive too fastGet too angry too quicklyStay up too lateRead too littleWatch TV too muchAnd are less considerate

We have multiplied our possessions, but have reduced our values
We talk too much, love too little and lie too often

We have learned how to make a living, but not a lifeWe have added years to life, but not life to years
![Page 8: The Paradoxof Our Times](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070603/54b8b8384a79594a718b4780/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
We have taller buildings, but shorter tempers Wider roads, but narrower viewpoints
We spend more, but have lessWe buy more, yet enjoy it less
We have been all the way to the moon and back But have trouble crossing the road to meet our neighbours.
We’ve conquered our outer space, But not our inner space
We’ve split the atomBut not our prejudice

We write more, learn less, ---------------------- plan more, but accomplish less we have 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 personal communication
We are long on quantity, But less in quality
These are the times of fast foods and slow digestion
Tall men and short character

More leisure but less fun - more kinds of food - but less nutritionTwo incomes - but more divorcenicer houses - but broken homes

That is 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 and admire the view without paying attention to your needs.Spend more time with your family and friends , eat your favorite food and visit the places you love .

Life is moments of enjoyment and not just about surviving.
Drink from the finest crystal glass. do not save your best perfume or aftershave but use it every day.

Remove phrases like “ one of these days “ ,“ someday” and “not now” from your vocabularywrite that letter you thought of writing “ one of these days “
Let’s tell our families and friends how much we love them.Do not delay anything that adds laughter and joy to your life .
Every day , every hour , and every minute is special.As you do not know if they will be your last .

If you are too busy to take the time to send this message to someone you love or care about and instead tell yourself that
you will send it “ one of these days “
You will not be here to send it“ one of these days “
