Reality of Modern Life

We drive too fast, get too anger, stay up too late and get up too tired,
We read too little, watch TV too much and pray too seldom,
We have multiplied our positions but reduced our value!
We talk too much, love too seldom and hate too often
We’ve learnt how to make a living but not a life
We added years to life but not life to years
We’ve done larger things but not bigger things
We’ve cleaned up the air but polluted the sole
We’ve conquered the atom but not our prejudices
We write more but learn less; we plan more but accomplish less.

We have learnt to rush but not to wait
We build more computers to hold more information to produce more copies than ever
But we communicate less and less.

These are the times of fast food and slow digestion, big men and small character
Remember to say a kind word to someone who looks up to you in awe
Because that little person soon will grow up and leave your side!
Remember to give a warm hug to the one next to you
Because that is the only pleasure you can give with your heart and it doesn’t cost a thing
Remember to say I love you to your partner and your loved one, but most of all ME!
A kiss and an embrace will mend hurt when it comes from deep inside of you
Remember to hold hands and cherish the moment,
cause some day that person will not be there again.
Give time to love, time to think; give time to share the precious thoughts in your mind.
