What if...

What if….

What if our lives were perfect?

What if we had no problems?

What if there was no struggle, no pain, no famine, and no hate?

What if the world was nothing but love?

I am making this thread to see what people can write about this. Any takers? I will try and work on my own story in the meantime. I have always dreamed of the perfect world but find it next to impossible. My goal is to learn about what people have to say and what they would think of a perfect world.

1. If our lives were perfect? It would be so fucked up, because every person has a different ideal of perfect based on their experiences in life, which we would be lacking if life was so said perfect. Life would suck way more then it already does, whatever created us I do believe wanted life to be a game of chance.
2. No problems, as stated previously, we wouldn't be able to learn from mistakes. I always believed that trials and tribulations eventually made you stronger either physically and mentally.
3. What you just described here, my friend, is indeed human nature at its worst and its best, and it is also how the ecosystem works. Hope and courage will even make the biggest of giants fall, all problems have a solution, its just how you individually choose to solve it. In addition to the latter, life would be so boring.
4. Nothing but love? No other human emotions? This too would be nice, but at the same time, human nature would completely corrupt the idea.
When we blindly adopt a religion, a political system, a literary dogma, we become automatons. We cease to grow.

Chaos and order are not enemies, only opposites.
