The Paradox of Our Age-- His Holiness the Dalai Lama


We have bigger houses, but smaller families;
More conveniences, but less time;
We have more degrees, but less time;
More knowledge, but less judgement;
More experts, but more problems;
More medicines, but less healthiness;
We've been all the way to the moon and back, but have trouble crossing the street to meet the new neighbor;
We built more computers to hold more information to produce more copies than ever, but have less communication; 
We have become long on quantity, but short on quality;
These are the times of fast foods, but slow digestion, tall men but short character, steep profits but shallow relationships;
It's a time when there is much in the window but nothing in the room.
