Perfect World


            Our world is riddled with war, plague, poverty, and death. It is not perfect, but man can try to achieve perfection. In my personal perfect world, the things listed above would not exist, we would be a peaceful and humble culture, but would life really be perfect? If life were only happy moments, we would not be able to discern the difference between happiness and sadness. One simply cannot exist without the other. It’s almost comparable the Chinese philosophy of yin and yang, one is notable to be without the other. Of course I wish for the earth to be free of war, sickness, and poverty, more than you can imagine. However, my idea of the perfect world would be one of imperfection. Life itself is imperfect, which is perfection to me.
