A wonderful Message by George Carlin:
> >
> >The paradox of our time in history is that we have
> >taller buildings but shorter tempers, wider
> >freeways, but narrower viewpoints. We spend more,
> >but have less, we buy more, but enjoy less. We have
> >bigger houses and smaller families, more
> >conveniences, but less time. We have more degrees
> >but less sense, more knowledge, but less judgment,
> >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, stay up too late, get up too tired, 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.
> >We've added years to life not life to years. We've
> >been all the way to the moon and back, but have
> >trouble crossing the street to meet a new neighbor.
> >We conquered outer space but not inner space. We've
> >done larger things, but not better things.
> >
> >We've cleaned up the air, but polluted the soul.
> >We've conquered the atom, but not our prejudice. We
> >write more, but learn less. We plan more, but
> >accomplish less. We've learned to rush, but not to
> >wait. We build more computers to hold more
> >information, to produce more copies than ever, but
> >we communicate less and less.
> >
> >These are the times of fast foods and slow
> >digestion, big men and small character, steep
> >profits and shallow relationships. These are the
> >days of two incomes but more divorce, fancier
> >houses, but broken homes. These are days of quick
> >trips, disposable diapers, throwaway morality, one
> >night stands, overweight bodies, and pills that do
> >everything from cheer, to quiet, to kill. It is a
> >time when there is much in the showroom window and
> >nothing in the stockroom. A time when technology can
> >bring this letter to you, and a time when you can
> >choose either to share this insight, or to just hit
> >delete.
> >
> >Remember, spend some time with your loved ones,
> >because they are not going to be around forever.
> >Remember, say a kind word to someone who looks up to
> >you in awe, because that little person soon will
> >grow up and leave your side. Remember, to give a
> >warm hug to the one next to you, because that is the
> >only treasure you can give with your heart and it
> >doesn't cost a cent.
> >
> >Remember, to say, ''I love you'' to your partner and
> >your loved ones, but most of all mean it. A kiss and
> >an embrace will mend hurt when it comes from deep
> >inside of you. Remember to hold hands and cherish
> >the moment for someday that person will not be there
> >again. Give time to love, give time to speak, and
> >give time to share the precious thoughts in your
> >mind.
> >
> >Life is not measured by the number of breaths we
> >take, but by the moments that take our breath away.
