Today we have higher buildings and wider highways
But shorter temperaments and narrower points of view.
We spend more, But enjoy less.
We have bigger houses, But smaller families.
We have more compromises, But less time.
We have more knowledge, But less judgment.
We have more medicine, But less health.
We have multiplied our possessions, But reduced our values.
We talk much, we love only a little and we hate too much.
We reached the moon and came back
But we find it troublesome to cross the street and meet our neighbors.
We have conquered the outer space, But not our inner space.
We have higher income, But less morals.
These are times with more liberty, But less joy.
With much more food, But less nutrition and more hunger.
These are days in which two salaries come home, But divorce increases.
These are times of finer houses, But more broken homes and homelessness.
That's why I propose that as of TODAY..............
You do not keep anything for a special occasion because everyday is a special occasion.
Search for knowledge Find your purpose. Read more. Sit on your front porch and admire the view without paying attention to the needs.
Make more time with your family. Serve Others. Volunteer in your community. Eat your favorite food. Visit the place you love. Life is a chain of moments of enjoyments, it isn't only survival.
Use your crystal goblets and china. Do not save your best perfume and cologne. Use it every time you feel you want it.
Take out from your vocabulary phrases like "one of these days and "Someday".
Never pass up a chance at adding laughter and joy to your life.
Laughter is music of the soul and smiles are God's sunshine.
Happiness is enhanced by others but not dependant upon others.
Every day, hour and minute are special. Your never know if it will be your last.
Let's write that letter we thought of writing "one of these days" TODAY!
Let's tell our families and friends how much we LOVE them TODAY!
Love is the only thing that can be divided without being diminished.
Always Remember.....................
Love Wins!

The beginning of this sounds a bit negative and glass half full. I agree we need to enjoy what we have, much more, but a positive outlook is the first place to start.
