The paradox of our time in history is that we have taller buildings,
wider freeways, but narrower viewpoints;
we buy more, but enjoy it less.
We have bigger houses and smaller families;
more conveniences, but less time;
we have more degrees, but less sense
more knowledge, but less judgment;
more experts, but more problems;
more medicine, but less wellness.
We have multiplied our possessions, but reduced our values.We talk too much, love too seldom, and hate too often.
We've learned how to make a living, but not a life;
we've added years to life, not life to years.
We've conquered outer space, but not inner space;
we've cleaned up the air, but polluted the soul ;
we've split the atom, but not our prejudice.
We have higher incomes, but lower morals;
steeps profits, and shallow relationships.
These are the times of world peace, but domestic warfare;more kinds of food, but less nutrition.
These are days of two incomes, but more divorce;
of fancier houses, but broken homes.
It is a time when there is much in the show window and nothing in the stockroom;
May Allah guide us on the Right Path!
