Shabo 0 Posted March 19, 2003 The Interesting Paradox Of Life 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 but smaller families. More conveniences but less time in our hands. We have more degrees, but we make less sense. More knowledge but poorer judgment. We have multiplied our possessions but reduced our values. We talk too much, love too little and hate too often. We've learned to make a living, but not life. We've added years to life, but not life to years. We've been crossing all the way to the moon and back. But have trouble crossing all the way to the moon and back. We've conquered outer space, but not our inner selves. We've done larger things, but not necessarily better things. We've built more computers to communicate faster, but less communication. These are the times of fast food and slow digestion. Of taller men but dwarfed characters. These are the days of two incomes, but more separations and annulments. Of fancier houses, but broken homes. Indeed, it is a time and clime so filled with paradoxes and contradictions. Basically we r moving forward very fast yet forgetting our roots... :( Sx Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cute_ooky 0 Posted March 20, 2003 Yeah Shabo... I agree wid u. Why is that tho? Is it human nature of forgetting our roots or are we really too embarassed to think abt our roots. U know it's a coincidence but I had a discussion wid my mom abt the same thing. But the question that I don't understand is why wud we do that? Don't u think it'd be better if we did the opposite. I mean lets say if we hadn't conquered the outer space but our innerselves. Wudn't that be much better? We cud've made so much sense out of our lives. Don't u think so? It's a very philosophical topic and we can talk abt it forever but I m getting late. I think it's enuf for today. Gtg....... see ya round. Bye ur fren ooky! PS i really really liked that particular line..... "We've conquered outer space, but not our inner selves." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shabo 0 Posted March 20, 2003 Salaam (again!) Ooky Well the human race is so hypocritical its unbelievable... I am speaking about the majority here.... they just want to move FORWARD be it with their lifestyle, their values, technology etc etc and forget what they really are! We know the difference between right and wrong and yet we will favour the wrong path :( This is when our religious beliefs help us to make the RIGHT choice (even if we dont want to) and come through as stronger people.... Ppl 4get their roots very easily yet they dont realise that is what they r, it's their identity and they should cherish that! Anyway this is my favourite line "We spend more, but have les." ..... :) Byeeeee Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mansoor 0 Posted March 21, 2003 sooooooooooo much wid the lectures ! :D waisay its a really thoughtful post ! laiken problem is who thinks ? mansoor Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cute_ooky 0 Posted March 22, 2003 Eh Mansoor........ u right. Who thinks hai na? Kitnee sharam kee baat hai... Nowadays ppl have so much free time to waste on stupid stuff but when it comes to reality and stuff like what Shabo was talking abt..... everyone is busy. No one has time to think. Afsos...... Waise u know I heard that aisee baton per fikar kerna Sawab hai. If I sed it galat in Urdu.......sorry bout that. I am not good at speaking Urdu ya know. Anyway that's what I heard. All my thinkings. Ohh n Mansoor u represent the thoughts of majority. Agar is dunya mai genious thore se ziada hote to kia ho jata? Why r all smart ppl in minority? Anyway Allah ke marzi. Sorry mansoor :D And Ariba I agree wid u.Shabo thanx for reply. U know u n Meeri always make my day. Ur philosophical thoughts and Meeri's funny jokes. K bye ya'll. Ooky!
