[00:00.00]Think It Over 好好想想

[00:04.55]Today we have higherbuildings and wider highways,

[00:09.26]but shorter temperaments and narrower points of view;

[00:12.75]We spend more, but enjoy less;

[00:15.14]We have bigger houses,

[00:16.79]but smaller families;

[00:18.44]We have more compromises,

[00:20.29]but less time;

[00:21.38]We have more knowledge,

[00:23.14]but less judgment;

[00:24.35]We have more medicines,

[00:25.97]but less health;

[00:26.77]We have multiplied our possessions,

[00:29.05]but reduced our values;

[00:30.71]We talk much,

[00:32.13]we love only a little,

[00:33.56]and we hate too much;

[00:35.19]We reached the Moon and came back,

[00:37.28]but we find it troublesome to cross our own street

[00:40.32]and meet our neighbors;

[00:41.65]We have conquered the outer space,

[00:43.85]but not our inner space;

[00:45.13]We have higher income,

[00:47.01]but less morals;

[00:48.21]These are times with more liberty,

[00:50.72]but less joy;

[00:51.70]We have much more food,

[00:53.24]but less nutrition;

[00:54.57]These are the days in which it takes two salaries for each home,

[00:58.63]but divorces increase;

[01:00.26]These are times of finer houses,

[01:02.56]but more broken homes;

[01:04.08]That’s why I propose, that as of today;

[01:06.82]You do not keep anything for a special occasion,

[01:09.55]because every day that you live is a SPECIAL OCCASION.

[01:13.17]Search for knowledge, read more,

[01:15.45]sit on your porch and admire the view

[01:17.87]without paying attention to your needs;

[01:19.74]Spend more time with your family and friends,

[01:22.03]eat your favorite foods,

[01:23.89]visit the places you love;

[01:25.81]Life is a chain of moments of enjoyment;

[01:28.21]not only about survival;

[01:29.95]Use your crystal goblets.

[01:31.93]Do not save your best perfume,

[01:34.02]and use it every time you feel you want it.

[01:36.41]Remove from your vocabulary phrases like

[01:39.27]“one of these days”or“someday”;

[01:41.33]Let’s write that letter we thought of writing“one of these days”!

[01:44.52]Let’s tell our families and friends how much we love them;

[01:47.79]Do not delay anything that adds laughter and joy to your life;

[01:51.61]Every day, every hour,

[01:53.37]and every minute is special;

[01:54.69]And you don’t know if it will be your last.
