The Paradox of Our Time (slow wisdom)

We have bigger house, but 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 medicines, but less healthiness
We’ve been all the way to the moon and back, but have trouble crossing the street to meet the new neighbor
We build more computers to hold more information to produce more copies than ever, but have less communication
We have become long on quantity, but short on quality
These are the times of fast foods, but slow digestion
Tall men, but short character
Steep profits, but shallow relationships
It’s time when there is much in the window, but nothing in the room

(The 14th Dalai Lama)
