GEORGE CARLIN STILL HAS IT RIGHT...WE HAVE LEARNED NOTHING AND ARE RUDDERLESS WITH NO LEADERS OR INTERESTING PLANS..WISDOM FOR THE AGES

A Message by George Carlin:


The paradox of our time in history is that we have taller
buildings but shorter tempers, wider Freeways , but narrower viewpoints. We
spend more, but have less, we buy more, but enjoy 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, yet more
problems, more medicine, but less wellness.


We drink too much, smoke too much, spend too recklessly, laugh
too little, drive too fast, get too angry, stay up too late, get up too tired,
read too little, watch TV too much, and pray too seldom.


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 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. It is a time when there is much in the showroom window and nothing in
the stockroom. 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 delete…


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


Remember, say a 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.
