What's In A Name?

This morning i went and worked out at the gym,I came home to realize i needed to get the mail.It was just a bunch of ads!but i looked through all the adds,and i found a newspaper. I figured that since i didn't have really anything to do today that i would just read the article on the front page. There was an article "What's In A Name?"talking about how we rely on others people input to get things we want.(I.E. daycares,old folks homes,and the service you get at different places. )

a 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,buy more but enjoy it less,we have bigger houses,but smaller families,more conveninces,but less time,more degrees but less common sense,more knowledge,but less judgement,more experts,but more problems,more medicine,but less wellness.we spend to recklessly,laugh too little,drive too fast,get too angry,stay up too late,get up tired,read to seldom and watch TV too much.we have multiplied our posessions,but reduced our value,we talk to much,love too seldom,and hate too often - Steve Densley
