THE PARADOX OF OUR AGE




WE HAVE BIGGER HOUSES BUT SMALLER FAMILIES
MORE CONVENIENCES, BUT LESS TIME
WE HAVE MORE DEGREES, BUT LESS SENSE
MORE KNOWLEDGE, BUT LESS JUDGEMENT
MORE EXPERTS, BUT MORE PROBLEMS
MORE MEDICINES, BUT LESS HEALTHINESS
WE HAVE BEEN ALL THE WAY TO THE MOON AND BACK
BUT HAVE TROUBLE CROSSING THE STREET TO MEET THE NEW NEIGHBOUR.
WE BUILT MORE COMPUTERS TO HOLD MORE INFORMATION
TO PRODUCE MORE COPIES THAN EVER
BUT HAVE LESS COMMUNICATION
WE HAVE BECOME LONG ON QUANTITY
BUT SHORT ON QUALITY.
THESE ARE TIMES OF FAST FOODS
BUT SLOW DIGESTION
TALL MEN BUT SHORT CHARACTER
STEEP PROFITS BUT SHALLOW RELATIONSHIPS.
ITS A TIME WHEN THERE IS MUCH IN THE WINDOW
BUT NOTHING IN THE ROOM.
