day 5...

Day 5: something you would change about the world.
Well here, my obvious answer is to stop conflict, slow down development that destroys the environment and have peace throughout, however, sadly, this does seem rather unrealistic, doesn't it?
I don't know, there is that song that says 'from a distance you look like my friend, even though we are at war, there are no guns, no wars, no disease and no hungry mouths to feed' (ps: stunning words of that song, called FROM A DISTANCE) so, yes, ultimately I guess in all honesty I would probably change the world by introducing world peace or getting rid of terrible diseases, etc you know, but this is still hard for me to write about because that cannot and will not happen. So the question is, is this answer meant to be realistic? Probably not. I think we live in a fantastic world, it is honestly beyond comprehension how beautiful it is, we are, the creatures and plants are, it boggles my mind that we can live here and that everything is so breath-taking...so physically, from a distance, I don't think I would change anything. Reality has a devious way of messing things up though and so I guess we kind of need to just focus on what makes us happy and what we wouldn't change because that is what will make us happy. You all know how disappointing that feeling of getting caught up in a daydream is and then you suddenly realize, no matter what, it won't happen, well for me, this is sort of what this question is like because most of the time, it cannot change anyway. I know I am sounding negative, and I don't mean to, I mean I do believe that we can eventually come to some sort of vague and fairly balanced agreement and peace amongst each other, but this is still some way away, I think, so for now I choose to focus rather on the joys of what we already have and accept and tolerate those that we can't...
