This is a 3-part video i found on YouTube which in my humble opinion is trully amazing. This talented guy has edited quotes and scenes from over 50 movies and speeches in a flowing philosophical journey about life, full of adventure and love:

Description:
The Paradox of our time:
The paradox of our time in history is that we have taller buildings but shorter tempers
Wider motorways, but narrower viewpoints
We spend more, but have less
We buy more, but enjoy less
We have bigger houses and smaller families
More conveniences, but less time
We have more degrees, but less sense
More knowledge, but less judgement
More experts, yet more problems
More medicine, but less wellness
We drink to much, smoke to much, spend to recklessly, laugh to little, drive to fast, get to angry, stay up to late, get up to tired, read to little, watch TV to much, and pray to seldom
We have multiplied our possessions, but reduced our values
We talk to much, love to little, and hate to often
We've learned how to make a living, but not a life
We've added years to life, not life to years
We've been all the way to the moon and back, but have trouble crossing the street to meet a new neighbor
We conquered outer space, but not inner space
We've done bigger things, but not better things
We've cleaned up the air, but polluted the soul
We've conquered the atom, but not our prejudice
We write more, but learn less
We plan more, but accomplish less
We've learned to rush, but not to wait
We build more computers to hold more information, to produce more copies than ever, but we communicate less and less
These are the times of fast foods and slow digestion
Big men, and small character
Steep profits, and shallow relationships
These are the days of two incomes, but more divorce
Fancier houses, but broken homes
These are days of quick trips, disposable diapers, throwaway morality, one night stands, overweight bodies, and pills that do everything from cheer, to quiet, to kill
It is a time when there is much in the showroom window and nothing in the stockroom
A time when technology can bring this letter to you, and a time when you can choose either to share this insight, or to just hit delete
Remember; spend some time with your loved ones, because they are not going to be around forever
Remember, say a kind word to someone who looks up to you in awe, because that little person soon will grow up and leave your side
Remember to give a warm hug to the one next to you because that is the only treasure you can give with your heart and it doesn't cost a thing
Remember, to say, "I love you" to your partner and your loved ones, but most of all mean it
A kiss and an embrace will mend hurt when it comes from deep inside of you
Remember to hold hands and cherish the moment for someday that person will not be there again
Give time to love, give time to speak and give time to share the precious thoughts in your mind
Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away

If youre going through hell, keep going.
