-->The Paradox<--

The paradox of our time is that we have more conveniences
    --> But less time

More degrees
    --> But less common sense

More knowledge
    --> But less judgement

More experts
    --> But fewer solutions

We have increased our possessions
    --> But reduced our values

We have learned to make a living
    --> But not a life

We have been all the way to the moon [and back]
    --> But still don't know our next-door neighbour

We've conquered outer space
    --> But not innerspace

We've cleaned up our air
    --> But polluted our souls

These are the times of tall men
    --> And short characters

Steep profits
    --> And shallow relationships

A time when there is much in the showroom windows
    --> But nothing on the stockroom floor
