[i=s] 本帖最后由 jane019 于 2012-11-26 22:10 编辑 [/i][p=30, 2, left][size=12pt]Today we have higher buildings and wider highways,but shorter temperaments and narrower points of view;[/size]
[size=12pt] We spend more,but enjoy less;[/size]
[size=12pt] We have bigger houses,but smaller famillies;[/size]
[size=12pt] We have more compromises,but less time;[/size]
[size=12pt] We have more knowledge,but less judgment;[/size]
[size=12pt] We have more medicines,but less health;[/size]
[size=12pt] We have multiplied out possessions,but reduced out values;[/size]
[size=12pt] We talk much,we love only a little,and we hate too much;[/size]
[size=12pt] We reached the Moon and came back,but we find it troublesome to cross our own street and meet our neighbors;[/size]
[size=12pt] We have conquered the uter space,but not our inner space;[/size]
[size=12pt] We have highter income,but less morals;[/size]
[size=12pt] These are times with more liberty,but less joy;[/size]
[size=12pt] We have much more food,but less nutrition;[/size]
[size=12pt] These are the days in which it takes two salaries for each home,but divorces increase;[/size]
[size=12pt] These are times of finer houses,but more broken homes;[/size]
[size=12pt] That's why I propose,that as of today;[/size]
[size=12pt] You do not keep anything for a special occasion.because every day that you live is a SPECIAL OCCASION.[/size]
[size=12pt] Search for knowledge,read more ,sit on your porch and admire the view without paying attention to your needs;[/size]
[size=12pt] Spend more time with your family and friends,eat your favorite foods,visit the places you love;[/size]
[size=12pt] Life is a chain of moments of enjoyment;not only about survival;[/size]
[size=12pt] Use your crystal goblets.Do not save your best perfume,and use it every time you feel you want it.[/size]
[size=12pt] Remove from your vocabulary phrases like"one of these days"or "someday";[/size]
[size=12pt] Let's write that letter we thought of writing "one of these days"![/size]
[size=12pt] Let's tell our families and friends how much we love them;[/size]
[size=12pt] Do not delay anything that adds laughter and joy to your life;[/size]
[size=12pt] Every day,every hour,and every minute is special;[/size]
[size=12pt] And you don't know if it will be your last.[/size]

[p=30, 2, left][size=9.5pt]**** Hidden Message *****[/size][/p] 今天我们拥有更高的楼宇和更宽的公路,但是我们的性情确是更为急躁了。
我们消耗的更多,享受到的更少。
我们的住房更大了,但是我们的家庭却更小了。
我们妥协更多,但是时间更少。
我们拥有更多的知识,但是判断力更弱。
我们拥有更多的药品,但是健康却更少了。
我们拥有的财富倍增,但是其价值却减少了。
我们说的多了,但是爱却少了,恨却多了。
我们可以往返月球,但是却难以迈出去亲近周围邻居的那一步。
我们可以征服外太空,但是却征服不了我们的内心。
