  1. Paradox of Our Times http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Feed-Your-Head/

  2. Paradox Today we have bigger houses and smaller families; more conveniences, but less time.

  3. Paradox We have more degrees, but less common sense; more knowledge, but less judgment.

  4. Paradox We have more experts, but more problems; more medicine, but less wellness.

  5. Paradox We spend too recklessly, laugh too little, drive too fast, get to angry too quickly, stay up too late, get up too tired, read too little, watch TV too often, and pray too seldom.

  6. Paradox We have multiplied our possessions, but reduced our values. We talk too much, love too little and lie too often.

  7. Paradox We‘ve learned how to make a living, but not a life; we’ve added years to life, not life to years.

  8. Paradox We have taller buildings, but shorter tempers; wider freeways, but narrower viewpoints.

  9. Paradox We spend more, but have less; we buy more, but enjoy it less.

  10. Paradox We've been all the way to the moon and back, but have trouble crossing the street to meet the new neighbor.

  11. Paradox We've conquered outer space, but not inner space. We've split the atom, but not our prejudice.

  12. Paradox We write more, but learn less; plan more, but accomplish less.

  13. Paradox We've learned to rush, but not to wait; we have higher incomes, but lower morals.

  14. Paradox We build more computers to hold more information, to produce more copies, but have less communication. We are long on quantity, but short on quality.

  15. Paradox These are the times of fast foods and slow digestion; tall men and short character; steep profits and shallow relationships.

  16. Paradox More leisure and less fun; more kinds of food, but less nutrition; two incomes, but more divorce; fancier houses, but broken homes.

  17. Paradox That’s why I propose, that as of today, you do not keep anything for a special occasion, because every day that you live is a special occasion.

  18. Paradox Search for knowledge, read more, sit on your front porch and admire the view without paying attention to your needs.

  19. Paradox Spend more time with your family and friends, eat your favorite foods, and visit the places you love.

  20. Paradox Life is a chain of moment of enjoyment, not only about survival.

  21. Paradox Use your crystal goblets. Do not save your best perfume, and use it every time you feel you want it.

  22. Paradox Remove from your vocabulary phrases like “one of these days” and “someday”. Let’s write that letter we thought of writing “one of these days”.

  23. Paradox Let’s tell our families and friends how much we love them. Do not delay anything that adds laughter and joy to your life.

  24. Paradox Every day, every hour, and every minute is special. And you don’t know if it will be your last.

  25. Paradox If you’re too busy to take the time to send this message to someone you love, and you tell yourself you will send it "one of these days". Just think…"One of these days", you may not be here to send it!
