We’ve learned how to make a living, but not a life. We’ve added years to life not life to years. We’ve been all the way to the moon and back, but have trouble crossing the street to meet a new neighbor. We conquered outer space but not inner space.  We’ve done larger things, but not better things. 

We’ve cleaned up the air but polluted the soul. We’ve conquered the atom, but not our prejudice.  We write more but learn less.  We plan more but accomplish less. We’ve learned to rush, but not to wait. We build more computers to hold more information, to Produce more copies than ever, but we communicate less and less. 

These are the times of fast foods and slow digestion, big men and small character, steep profits, and shallow relationships. These are the days of two incomes but more divorce, fancier houses, but broken homes. These are days of quick trips, disposable diapers, throwaway morality, one-night stands, overweight bodies, and pills that do everything from cheer, to quiet, to kill. A time when technology can bring this letter to you, and a time when you can choose either to share this insight, or to just hit delate… 

Remember; spend some time with your loved ones, because they are not going to be around forever.  

Remember, to say kind word to someone who looks up to you in awe, because that little person soon will grow up and leave your side.  

Remember, to give a warm hug to the one next to you, because that is the only treasure you can give with your heart, and it doesn’t cost a cent.  

Remember, to say, “I love you” to your partner and your loved ones, but most of all mean it.  A kiss and an embrace will mend hurt when it comes from deep inside of you. 

Remember to hold hands and cherish the moment for someday that person will not be there again.  

Give time to love, give time to speak!  And give time to share the precious thoughts in your mind. 

AND ALWAYS REMEMBER:

Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.
