Today we have 
higher buildings and wider highways, but shorter temperaments and narrower points of view
We spend more, but enjoy less
We have bigger houses, but smaller families
We have more compromises, but less time
We have more knowledge, but less judgment
We have more medicines, but less health
We have multiplied our possessions, but reduced our values
We talk too much, we love only a little, and we hate too much
We reached the moon and came back, but find trouble to cross our own s
treet and meet our neighbor
We have conquered the outer space but not the inner space
We have high income, but lesser morals
These are times with more liberty, but less joy……
With much more food, but less nutrition
These are times of finer houses, but more broken homes
That’s why I propose that as from today you don’t keep anything for a special occasion, because every day that you live is a special occasion. Life is a chain of moments of enjoyments; it isn’t only a survival. Use your crystal goblets. Do not save your best perfume, and use it every time you feel you want it. Take out from your vocabulary phrases like “one of these days” and “someday”.
