this has been handed down to me by my daddy, you'll know why i posted it here once you read it ...here it goes...

LIFE AND TIME

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 judgement moreexperts, yet more problems, more medicine, but less wellness.


we drink toomuch , smoke too much , spend too recklessly , laugh too little, drive to fast, get too angry, stay up too late, get up too tired, drive 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 too 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 road to meet a new neighbour. we conquered outer 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...(i hope i learn from this...:D). 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 to of quick trips, disposable diapers, throwaway mrality, 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 stock room. 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...


remeber; spend some time with your loved ones, because they are not gong 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.


remeber, 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.


remembe 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.

Believe

The title is not incomplete. At least not in the context of what I want to say. I know I am very young to be preaching things like this but I would rather say that I am just a little more thankful. “Believing” is the one thing that I truly feel is essential to achieving everything that we have ever desired. Believe that whatever will happen, will be for the best. When you find yourself in a situation which seems very critical and difficult to get past, just for a while make your mind believe that you have solved the problem and in just about some time you will be guided to the right path, irrespective of what your decision was. I know that sounds bizarre and absolutely insane but I can say that not because I am cranky (though I am) but because I have experienced that method work for me. Just when I thought that there has probably come a time where I will have to make alterations to the plan I had for myself, something as per my plan comes my way. It’s as if someone else was making th...
