We spend more,but enjoy less;

We have bigger houses,but *** aller famillies

We have more promises,but less time;

We have more knowledge,but less judgment;

We have more medicines,but less health;

We have multiplied out possessions,but reduced out values;

We talk much,we love only a little,and we hate too much;

We reached the Moon and came back,but we find it troublesome to cross our own street and meet our neighbors;

We have conquered the uter space,but not our inner space;

We have highter ine,but less morals;

These are times with more liberty,but less joy;

We have much more food,but less nutrition;

These are the days in which it takes o salaries for each home,but divorces increase;

These are times of finer houses,but more broken homes;

Spend more time with your family and friends,eat your favorite foods,visit the places you love;

Life is a chain of moments of enjoyment;not only about survival;

Use your crystal goblets.Do not save your best perfume,and use it every time you feel you want it.

Remove from your vocabulary phrases like"one of these days"or "someday";

Let's write that letter we thought of writing "one of these days"!

Do not delay anything that adds laughter and joy to your life;

Every day,every hour,and every minute is special;

And you don't know if it will be your last.

The Giving Tree

Once there was a giving tree

Who loved a little boy

And everyday the boy would e to play

Swinging from her branches

Sleeping in her shades

Laughing all the summer hours away

And so they loved, and oh the tree was happy

Oh, the tree was glad

But soon the boy grew older

And one day he came and said

Can you give me some money, tree

To buy some things I\'ve found

I have no money, said the tree

Just apples, igs and leaves

But you can take my apples, boy

And sell them in the town

And so he did, and oh the tree was happy

Oh, the tree was glad

Soon again the boy came back

And he said to the tree, I\'m now a man

And I must have a house that\'s all my own

I can\'t give you a house, said the tree

The forest is my home

But you may cut my branches off

And build yourself a home

And so he did, and oh the tree was happy

Oh, the tree was glad

And time went by and the boy came back

With sadness in his eyes

My life has turned so cold, he said

And I need sunny days

I\'m nothing buy my trunk, she said

But you may cut it down

And build yourself a boat and sail away

And so he did, and oh the tree was happy

Oh, the tree was glad

And after years, the boy came back

From both ends of the world

I really cannot help you

If you ask another gift

I\'m nothing but an old stump now

I\'m sorry, boy, she said

I\'m sorry, but I\'ve nothing more to give

I don\'t need very much now

Just a quiet place to rest

The boy, he whispered with a weary *** ile

Well, said the tree, an old stump is still as good for that

Come, boy, she said, sit down

Sit down and rest awhile

And so he did, and oh the tree was happy

Oh, the tree was glad
