Remember this

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 show window and nothing in the stockroom.

we should all take some time and think about our life

the feeling of love

i read this in my fren blog, i would say quite true

The feelings of "love"

I believe , we have 3stages of this so called love....
the first being when you were only 7 years old...remember that girl whose hand you held for the first time...yes, she probably sat next to u in nursery...what ever happened to her?
the second being when you had just gone midway through your puberty...remember that girl who you saw everytime and your heart skipped a beat...and every time you thought of her, your general took command...you had those fantasy sexual encounters and emotions fulfilled....well yeah, guess what she was your "love" at that time...then again ask yourself...whatever happened to her?
the third being when you just finished your teenage years...you actually thought you had what it took to be a man and stand on your own two feet and face the world.....then you saw this girl...your heart began beating faster than ever...you got to know her...you became intimate, you became "one"..you shared all those dreams of being together...(the nice plush houses, the nice looking children you'd have) everything you dreamt with her....but as times went on, you never changed..you did all you could to keep them happy...but they changed...they began seeing all the flaws in you..they began rejecting your love..they began acting distant from the dreams you shared...they started making all sorts of excuses as to why things weren't working out....what did you do wrong? you gave it your all....unfortunately the relationship came to an end....you seemingly went into "depression" you thought she is all that mattered to you....you can not imagine yourself in "love" again...Sorry to bust your bubble people, but that "love" which you shared with her...you shared it with 2 other different timeline girls as well...what ever happened to them? and in this case whatever happened to you? look at it from her point....
The moral here is to,Just get over your lousy heartbreaks...because love is just an emotion of the moment...we are blessed to have the ability to hurt and heal....emotions are nothing when you learn to control them....the emotions are mere slaves of our thinking...change your thinking...life is not all about love..it is about achievement and success....yes love is needed, but like i said, when something comes to an end its the open door for a new opportunity....live life to the brim and enjoy every moment of it...
