If You Woke Up In A Perfect World.......

Re: If You Woke Up In A Perfect World.......

All right. My idea of a perfect world is one in which we no longer have bodies, but exist as pure conscious without an interface between us and reality. We have control over our place in existence, physically, but it's not total. We are able to experience things sensually without the interface of a body, and we are able to interact with one another.

The world has a Truth to it, meaning everything is established, and we hold full knowledge and understanding of that Truth. Furthermore, the nature of this Truth brings us peace and freedom, understanding.

Effectively, in a perfect world we are no longer human. We are something that has human roots - our ability to love and hate, our ability to derive pleasure from pain, everything that makes us so complex- but we are elevated. We are not anchored down by flesh and blood, or my limits of comprehension.

We are also mortal and finite. But any pain, any loss that we experience is served in a positive way. Our suffering serves to grow us, not to diminish us. Disharmony is not a blight, it's a tool through which progress is made.

In short, we are evolved.

In the perfect world, there is no beauty, no truth, no joy. In order to exist, those things require imperfections with which they can contrast.

Sounds like my idea of hell. Gray perfection.

Hypothetical scenario: tomorrow, you will wake up in a changed and perfect world. Everything is as it should be in your own life, in your community, in the world at large... Life, as you know it, is perfect--all your dreams have come true, all your ambitions have been realized.

You open your eyes with the morning light....

What is the first thing you will notice about your changed life?
What does your life look like in this new, changed, and perfect world?
Where are you, who are you, how old are you, who are you with?
What will you do today in your new and perfect life?

In my line of work, this is called the magic question. Let's hear some magic answers y'all!

In my perfect world I be running a sight seeing touring business off of lake Sevan.......and life would be good.

Sounds like you need to move the family to Tuscany! or Provence! Aaah~ Provence~!

Or one of the Greek islands maybe? All of the Mediterranean seems to have a charm not found anywhere else.

I think great hair on a perfect day would just happen... without need of a ton of hair product.

Heh. Sounds like a weekend on the lake at Sevan, with lots of lobster and such--and a ton of hair products!

Doesn't it? I love it. Its too fun to not think about, plus great hair on a perfect day is a plus!

There will never be a such thing as a perfect world, but once people find the things in life from which they derive their happiness and misery and surround themselves by the former and distance themselves from the latter, it's as close to perfect as one will get. For me, if I woke up in a perfect world, it'd be sunny and warm, everyone would be cheerful in spirit, and I'd be surrounded by family and friends whom I love.

My perfect world is all about me and my selfish desires. =p


-My parents are healthy. My bed is warm and cozy, with the right temperature, and I can actually see without my contacts on. Woohoo.

-I'm not worried about work or what will happen if I miss a day or two. I call everyone in my family and they all tell me they are well and actually mean it.

-I am in Armenia with all of my family, again. And I also have someone in my life who I want to spend the rest of my life with. I am me and still the same age, and don't even mind growing older in this perfect world.

-I would go to the beach and get a perfect tan (ha!). My curls would be extremely perfect (not that it already isn't =p), and there would be a lot of amazing food.

I have zero creativity.
But, it would be a nice day and something I've had before. =)
