"Think it over..."

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 judgement.

We have more medicines, 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 our own street and meet our neighbors.

We have conquered outer space, but not our inner space.

We have higher incomes, but fewer morals.

These are times with more liberty, but less joy....

With much more food, but less nutrition....

These are days in which two salaries get home, but divorces increase.

These are times of finer houses, but more broken homes.

That’s why I propose that, as of today;

You do not keep anything for a special occasion, because every day that you live is a special occasion.

Search for knowledge, read more, sit on your front porch and admire the view without paying attention to the needs.

Pass more time with your family, eat your favorite food, visit the place you love.

Life is a chain of moments to appreciate and be thankful for; it isn’t only survival of wealth.

Use your crystal goblets.

Do not save your best perfume - use it every time you feel you want to.

Take out of your vocabulary phrases like "one of these days" and "someday".

Write that letter you thought of writing "One of these days".

Let’s tell our families and friends how much we love them.

Don’t delay anything which adds

laughter and joy to your life.

Every day, hour, and minute are special....

And you don’t know if it will be your last...

If you’re too busy to take the time to send this message to someone, and you tell yourself you will send it "one of these days", just think that "one of these days" can be very far away, or even that you might not be there to see it....
