The Paradox of Our Age

We have bigger houses, but smaller families;

More conveniences, but less time;

More knowledge, but less judgment;

More experts, but more

problems;

More medicines, but less healthiness;

We have been all the way to the moon and back,

But have trouble crossing the street to meet our new neighbor.

We built more computers to hold more informatin, but have less communication.

We have become long on quantity, but short on quality.

These are the times of fast food, but slow digestion;

Tall man but short character;

Steep profits but shallow

relationships,

It is a time where there is much in the window, but nothing in the room.

-Dalai Lama

Happy birthday to Darla Cline Shannon, June 11 and to Kyleeah Williams June 10.
