The Paradox of Our Time

This sums up why time with your family and friends is the best use of your time. Give the gift of time this Mothers Day, nothing in a package will ever mean more. I think a camping trip may be in order.

we have taller buildings but shorter tempers;
wider freeways, but narrower viewpoints.
We spend more, but have less;

we have more degrees, but less sense;
more knowledge, but less judgement;
more experts, yet more problems,
more medicine, but less wellness.

We drink too much, smoke too much,
spend too recklessly,
laugh too little,
drive too fast,
get too angry,

read too little, watch TV too much, and pray too seldom.

We have multiplied our possessions, but reduced our values.
We talk too much, love too seldom, and hate too often.
We’ve learned how to make a living, but not a life,
