It was written by a Columbine High School student.

THE PARADOX OF OUR TIME

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 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 have
learned how to make a living, but not a life; we've added years to
life,
not life to years. We have been all the way to the moon and back, but
we have trouble crossing the street to meet the new neighbor.

We've conquered outer space, but not inner space; we've done larger
things, but not better things; we've split 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 have higher incomes, but
lower morals; we've become long on quantity, but short on quality.

These are the times of tall men, and short character; steep profits,
and shallow relationships. These are the times of world peace, but
domestic warfare; more leisure, but less fun; more kinds of food, but
less
nutrition.

These are the 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; a time when technology can bring
this
letter to you, and a time when you can choose either to make
a difference, or just to hit delete!
