Hello, everyone.
I welcome you to my blog and another wonderful edition of the Hive Learner's featured post. Sometimes we find ourselves wishing for a world where we were all equal, with zero poverty, just a world where we all can afford the basic needs and wants of life without even blinking an eye, a world where there is no terminal disease that threatens our life or even goes as far as taking our loved ones away from us. We all want and have imagined a world where there is peace, no wars, and no countries rising against other countries or invading other countries and threatening each other with missiles or war.
A world where we all coexist without drama, without chaos, a world where we love and cherish each other's lives and not just cherish ours while treating that of others like trash. We all want a life and a world where kids don't have to grow up scared and forced to have some street orientation to help them survive the cruel world, a world where kids can be kids and not be forced to be switching on and off survival mode. As beautiful as this world might look in our heads and in a picture, trust me when I say it does not fit us as humans; we tend to abuse every perfect thing thrown at us or that comes our way.
We all have that tendency to take advantage of anything, and a world like that, so perfect and beautiful, will have almost everyone walking the face of the earth making an attempt to take full advantage of such a world, and before you know it, a world that was once perfect turns into complete chaos, one not safe for both kids and adults. Even the current world that we live in was not this bad; it was all us (humans) trying to milk everything and every opportunity that made the world we live in this chaotic, this problematic, and this unsafe for both adults and children. Even though the world we live in was not completely perfect, at least we had more peace than chaos, and we felt safer than we feel today.
The truth is that our world was never meant to be perfect; it was never meant to be one that stays the same forever, as our world is one that evolved with each passing day. We as humans too were never meant to be equals; some people just had to be higher in the hierarchy, and that was the only way things would stay in order, and there is no way humans will not get greedy, which means those in position will not and cannot put the needs of the people before their own; it takes a really good person to do that.
If we were all equals and had everything in abundance such that we didn't have to put in any effort, I think our world would be filled with lazy people not willing to put in the work or any form of effort to get things done. I feel many people strive this much because of the situation they find themselves in and have realized that it is either they put in the work or they will never get to see a change. In that perfect world we want or have created in our heads, it is only a matter of time before it crashes down because a lot of things will be missing, like hard work. I doubt if there will be orderliness because we are all equals, and nobody will want to follow the other's instructions. The imperfection of our world has a way of impacting and affecting it positively, and the perfection of our world might only result in having a negative impact.
