Mordern Paradox The paradox of our history in time is that.. We have taller buildings,but shorter temper; wider freeways but narrower view points; we spend more but have less; we buy more but enjoy less; we have bigger houses but smaller families; more conveniences but less time; we have more degrees but less sense; more knowledge but less judgement; more experts but less solution; more medicines but less wellness; we have multiplied our posessions but reduced our values; we have conquered the outer space but not the inner space; we hve learnt how to make a living but not a life; we have added years to life but not life to years; we have split the atom but not our prejudice; we have higher incomes but lower morals; these are the times of taller men and shorter character; steep profiles,and shallow relationships; these are times of world space but domestic war-face more leisure but less fun more kinds of food but less nutrition; these are the days of two incomes,but more divorces; of fancier houses,but broken homes; It is a time when there is much in the show window but nothing in the stock room; we are always gettting ready to live but never living.
