The paradox of our time in history is that we have older buildings but smaller souls, wider freeways but narrow minds. Spend more but have less, we buy more but enjoy less.
We have bigger houses but smaller families, have more accessories but less time, we have several functions but less mind, more knowledge but less trial, more experts yet more problems, more medicine but less health.
We drink too much, smoke too much, spend too recklessly, laugh too little, drive too fast, we pissed too hard to sleep too late, we got too tired, read too little, too much television we watch and pray too seldom .
We have multiplied our possessions but reduced values, we talk too much, love too seldom and hate too often. I learned how to earn our existence but as we make a life. I have added years of life and not life years. I got to the moon and back but have trouble crossing the street when we need to make acquaintance with a neighbor. We conquered outer space but not inner. We do greater things but not better. We clean the air but I polluted soil. I conquered the atom but not our prejudices. We write more but learn less. We plan more but accomplished less. I learned to hurry, but not to wait. We build more computers to hold more information and to produce more copies than ever but increasingly communicate less.
These are times of fast food sites and slow digestion, big men and petty characters, fast profits and shallow relationships. These are times when we have two incomes but more divorce, more beautiful houses but homes disintegration. These are times when we have quick trips, disposable diapers use, character of two money-adventures of a night, overweight bodies, and pills that do you induce any state of the joy of death.
Remember to spend time with loved people, because you will not be near an eternity. Remember to say a good word you veneraza child because that child will grow soon and will go near you. Remember to embrace him with love the guy next to you that this is the only treasure that you can give with your heart and no cost. Remember to say I LOVE YOU and your partner that loves people and especially to say from the heart. A kiss and a hug will ease the pain when they are sincere. Remember to keep your loved ones and hand and appreciates the time that someday that person will not be near you. Take time to love, take time to talk, take time to share the precious thoughts you have.
