The 1 of our time in history is that we have taller buildings but shorter 2 , wider freeways, but narrower viewpoints. We spend more, but have less, we buy more, but 3 less. We have bigger houses and smaller families, more conveniences, but less time. We have more degrees but less 4 , more knowledge, but less judgment, more experts, yet more problems, more medicine, but less wellness. We drink too much, smoke too much, spend too 5 , laugh too little, drive too fast, get too 6 , stay up too late, get up too 7 , read too little, watch TV too much, and pray too seldom. We have 8 our possessions, but reduced our values. We talk too much, love too seldom, and hate too often. We've 9 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 10 crossing the street to meet a new neighbor. We 11 outer space but not inner space. We've done larger things, but not 12 things. We've cleaned up the air, but 13 the soul. We've conquered the atom, but not our 14 . 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 15 information, to produce more copies than ever, but we communicate less and less.
