These Days ... Undercover.

These Days ... 
We
have taller buildings, 
but
shorter
tempers
;
Wider freeways, 
but
narrower
viewpoints; 
We spend more, but have less; We buy more, but enjoy it less.
We have bigger houses and smaller families;
More conveniences, but less time; we have more degrees, but less common sense;
More knowledge, 
but
less
judgment; 
More experts, but fewer solutions; More medicine, but less wellness.
We spend too recklessly, laugh too little, drive too fast, get too angry too quickly, stay up too late, get up too tired, read too seldom,
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 lie 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 the new neighbor.
We've 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 split the atom, but not our prejudice; we write more, but learn less; plan more, but accomplish less.
We've learned to rush 
,
but
not to wait; more food but less appeasement;
More acquaintances, 
but
fewer friends; more effort but less success.
We've become long on quantity 
,
but short on quality.
These are the time of fast foods 
and
slow digestion;
Tall men 
and
short character; Steep profits 
, and shallow
relationships.
These are the times of world peace, 
but
domestic warfare;
More leisure 
and less fun;
More kinds of food, but less nutrition. 
These are days of two incomes, but more divorce; 
of fancier houses 
,
but broken homes...
These Days ...
Isn’t it funny..how most of our lives lie in proportion to these truths….
