I haven’t got all that much time this weekend to blog as Im working this weekend But I felt I wanted to share what I Came across this in a book I was reading the other night, the Book was by Wa-Na-Nee-Chee called “ Empowering the Spirit” The pathway of Light.. The book is very enlightening and takes us on a journey of self discovery and askes us to look at the ‘Old Ways’ He quoted a passage which I hadn’t read before but some of you may be acquainted with it.. as It has been adapted and sent out as various emails..
Called The Paradox Of Our Age by Dr Bob Moorehead I just wish to share it here with you all..
Wishing you all a Great Weekend and sending you all A Cosmic Hug.

“The Paradox of Our Age
By Dr. Bob Moorehead
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 neighbour. 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 showroom window and nothing in the stockroom. A time when technology can bring this letter to you, and a time when you can choose either to share this insight, or to just hit delete.
Remember, spend some time with your loved ones, because they are not going to be around forever.
Remember to say a kind word to someone who looks up to you in awe, because that little person soon will grow up and leave your side.
Remember to give a warm hug to the one next to you, because that is the only treasure you can give with your heart and it doesn’t cost a cent.
Remember to say "I love you" to your partner and your loved ones, but most of all mean it. A kiss and an embrace will mend hurt when it comes from deep inside of you.
Remember to hold hands and cherish the moment for someday that person will not be there again.
Give time to love, give time to speak, and give time to share the precious thoughts in your mind.
AND ALWAYS REMEMBER:
Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.”The Great Leap~ Be Good to each other~ live from your Heart~ Hugs Dreamwalker

Very wise words Sue. Thank you for sharing.
We live in sad times, but we can make them less sad. By giving, sharing, and spreading love.
Once again thank you for your nice prediction on my site (I trust your words ), and for good wishes.
Have a great time now, and since the rest of your life Sue 🙂
I love hugs, so big warm hug to you 🙂

Hi Sabina, thank you, yes we appear to live in Sad times as it is only much of the sadness that gets reported in this world as we live in a society which promotes Fear Based news.. Maybe you would be interested in looking at one of the videos I posted on my Awakening Videos Page, its an hour long so make sure your comfy lol.. But this shows exactly how our minds are conditioned and held in that sadness and fear.. While there are MANY Happy People out there and many like yourselves who seek to find the Happiness in everything and live for the now.. Many thanks again for adding your own special light to my pages here Sabina..

I know how that feels Jen.. and those that are no longer here to say those special words too, I also know that ‘Thought’ is energy which is sent out like a cord.. and if your love one is no longer on this dimension then they will still be able to feel and hear that thought when sent with love.. Believe that Jen, Loved ones where ever they are we are all only a whisper apart..
But we do need to all of us remember that each moment is special. and we should realise that in a blink of an eye things can change~ So if like this Post says in the last sentence
AND ALWAYS REMEMBER:
“Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.” So make each Moment COUNT! Love to you Jen ~Dreamwalker

Thank you for sharing this Sue, everything hit a chord within, and as I scrolled down I kept agreeing with every similarity (just lately my temper has shortened slightly,,,,as if I’m niggled by something other than what I think has disturbed me… I feel I may need some time out soon)… I hope your working week-end was productive, unlike mine, which gave me more questions rather than answers…now back to the grind-stone of the working week… all the best to you and yours.. xPenx

Thank you so very, very much for your “Always remember” and the still-visual from YouTube today. The line I likes best? “We have learned to rush, but not to wait”. We must WAIT and JUST BE before we can love, touch, embrace!
