Daily Thought

What would you do if you lived in a perfect world?

Would you live in a meadow, a cabin by the sea, an apartment in the city? Would you walk pleasantly through the middle of the city, smiling, saying hello to the beautiful people you've never met? How about traveling through the Amazon, the Jungle of Life, the vast Emptiness of the enoromous oceans which surround and feed us. Would you love more? Laugh with more rumbling from the pit of your stomach? Maybe even call an old friend, someone who you had a quarrel with, just to say hello and see how their journey was panning out? Would you dance more, sing louder, or smile brighter? What would you do if there weren't any wars, any hunger, any poverty? If inequality were bannished, racism, hate and greed, all disappeared, just like that. What COULD you do?

What would our lives look like? Do you think about how many summers you have left? How many opportunities you have left to see the world, see your great aunt, see your parents? Maybe you could say thanks once more, thanks for the life you were given, thanks for the love you experienced, the kalidescope of emotions that were both stimulating and devastatingly difficult to migrate through. Maybe you would go play catch with your son, drink invisible tea at a tea party with your daughter, take bunt cake to your grandmother's trinket packed room at the old folks home down the street. Maybe even, you would volunteer some time to a good cause, we all need help sometimes.

In my perfect world, I see a union of people, a collaboration of talent, unique identity, supernatural forces all working towards a common goal, a greater good, a breath taking glimpse of the Garden of Eden. I see love, real, pure, innocent love. Love for each other, for the life we lead, the life we create, the living things all around us. I see humanity at its finest, imperfections invisible, perfection within us all. Mankind working through the fallen emotions, the jealousies, the greed, the rage that obstructs so many of us from moving forward in time, in space, in evolution of the creation of a perfect world. I see men and women, pursuing things they love with a passion so deep nothing gets in their way, for their eyes are so focused on their goal, no pleasure or pain affects these masters at work.

I see fields of blooming lilies, filling acres of air with an aroma of a thousand rejuvenating breaths. I see a rainbow of colour in an eternal sphere of eyes, eyes that resonate self assurance, peace, wisdom, and love. I see fingertips running across plump lips, long hair flowing tameless in the sweet winds of change, wet feet being kissed by the waves of the sea. Each flowing vien running parallel with the symposium of synch discovered.

I see rooms filled with laughter, babies breathing new life into their surroundings, hands placed on lips and hips, judgements suspended in natural rigidness. I see a world full of messy scrapbooks filled with songs of creativity, poems full of personality, picutres embracing people who are not afraid to show and tell. I see people biting apples and sleeping with rose petals. I see you and I, walking through OZ.

What do you see in a perfect world?
