The Paradox Of Our Times

The Paradox Of Our Times


Click for Next Slide 
Today we have bigger houses yet
smaller families
More convenience, but less time
We Have More degrees, but less common sense
More knowledge, but less judgement
We have more experts, but more problems
More medicine, but less good health
We spend too recklessly
Laugh too little
Drive too fast
Get too angry too quickly
Stay up too late
Read too little
Watch TV too much
And are less considerate
We have multiplied our possessions, but have reduced
our values

We talk too much, love too little and lie too often
We have learned how to make a living, but not a
life
We have added years to life, but not life to years
We have taller buildings, but shorter
tempers
Wider roads, but narrower viewpoints

We spend more, but have less


We buy more, yet enjoy it less

We have been all the way to the moon and


back
But have trouble crossing the road to meet
our neighbours.

We’ve conquered our outer space, But not


our inner space

We’ve split the atom


But not our prejudice
We write more, learn less, ----------- plan more, but accomplish
less, we have learned to rush, but not to wait, we have higher
incomes , but lower morals

We build more computers to


hold more information, to
produce more copies
But have less personal
communication
We are long on quantity,
But less in quality
These are the times of fast
foods and slow digestion
Tall men and short
character
More leisure but less fun - more kinds of food - but less nutrition
Two incomes - but more divorce
nicer houses - but broken homes
These are days of quick trips,
disposable diapers,
throw-away 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
show 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 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 change
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.
Give time to love,
give time to speak,
give time to share the precious thought in
your mind.
Life is moments of enjoyment and not
just about surviving.

Drink from the finest crystal glass.


do not save your best perfume or
aftershave but use it every day.
Remove phrases like “ one of these days “ ,
“ someday” and “not noW” from your vocaBulary
write that letter you thought of writing
“ one of these days “
let’s tell our families and friends
how much we love them.
Do not delay anything that adds laughter
and joy to your life .
Every day , every hour , and every minute is special.
As you do not know if they will be your last .
WE ARE WHERE WE ARE NOW NOT
BECAUSE OF OUR OWN OR SOMEBODY
ELSE’S DOING… …BUT BECAUSE OF GOD.
IT’S PART OF HIS PLAN TO MAKE US

LOVE THROUGH SERVICE TO OTHERS. LET

CALLING BY PROVIDING THE BEST
QUALITY SERVICE TO OUR CLIENTELE…
