In the perfect world...

Have you ever wondered if a perfect world, an utopia, would work? Imagine there are no crimes committed, no harm, everybody likes each other, everything is free, no racism, no dictatorships, no homophobia, you can get anyone you want, no war, no starving, no disasters... You get the point. I know it would be impossible but let's pretend it was possible and it happened. How would it feel? Would it actually be so perfect as it seems? I think our minds can't imagine how it would be since it's quite inferior (relatively speaking), just as we can't understand infinity. A perfect world, while being everything we wanted, would be quite bland, I think. There would not be much variation and so on. Of course, if it was all perfect, we wouldn't notice, but since it's not all perfect don't you think we would miss all the discussions, the opinions and heated debates? Wouldn't we miss the intrigues, the excitement of finding a new beloved person after a long search, consoling a dear friend and feeling empathic, et cetera?

I'll say no thanks to a perfect world even though I would like some of the stuff I have mentioned. Like being able to get whoever you want. But who wouldn't want that? ;-)

Om vi skulle uppnå det som vi idag anser är perfekt skulle vi säkert få nya mål att sträva efter ;)
