Gone Are the Days

Saw this on a friend's blog and couldn't help sharing:

Gone are the days where modesty was measured by shame, where intelligence was measured by humility and where love was measured by emotions. Modesty is now judged by appearance; intelligence by the gift of the gab, and love by the fulfillment of materialistic desires. Gone are the days where simplicity was admired. Simplicity is a powerful wing with which one can soar high and low, if man but knew.
