Wise Words from George Carlin

The paradox of our time in  history is that we have taller buildings but shorter tempers, wider  Freeways ,  but  narrower viewpoints. We spend more, but have less, we buy more, but  enjoy less. We have bigger houses and smaller families, more  conveniences, but less time. We have more degrees but less sense, more  knowledge, but less judgment, more experts, yet more problems, more  medicine, but less wellness.

We drink too much, smoke too  much, spend too recklessly, laugh too little, drive too fast, get too  angry, stay up too late, get up too tired, read too little, 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 hate 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 a new neighbor. We 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  conquered the atom, but not our prejudice. We write more, but learn  less. We plan more, but accomplish less. We've learned 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 foods and slow digestion, big men  and small character, steep profits and shallow relationships. These  are the days of two incomes but more divorce, fancier houses, but  broken homes. These are days of quick trips, disposable diapers,  throwaway 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 showroom 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 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 treasure you can  give with your heart and it doesn't cost a cent..

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.

Remember to hold hands and cherish the moment  for someday that person will not be there again.

Give time to  love, give time to speak! And give time to share the precious thoughts  in your mind.

AND ALWAYS REMEMBER:

Life is not measured  by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our  breath away.

                        George  Carlin
