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 have bigger houses and smaller families;
more conveniences, but less time;
We have more degrees, but less common sense;
more knowledge, but less judgment;
more experts, but more problems;
more medicine, but less wellness.
We’ve learned how to make a living, but not a life;
we’ve added years to life, not life to years.
We build more computers to hold more information,
to produce more copies than ever, but have less communication;
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 many things, but not better things;
We’ve cleaned up the air, but polluted the soul;
We have higher incomes; but lower morals;
more acquaintances, but fewer friends;
Indeed it’s all true. Think about it…read it again.
