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 judgment;

 

more experts, but more problems;

more medicines but less healthiness.

We’ve 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 than ever,

but have less real communication.

These are times of Fast food but slow digestion;

Tall man but short character;

Steep profits but shallow relationships.

It’s a time when there is much in the window.

But nothing in the room."

 -Dalai Lama-
