If you could change the world...
If you could change the world, what would you change and why?
This is a question that has bothered me since I was very young. Because (to me at least) the answer has always been very simple. It's bothered me because I could not figure out why everyone else did not see it. Then I grew up, and realized the problem was fear. We don't want to give up anything, we want to hang onto what we have out of the fear of becoming less than we are.
We would have to learn to work together, rather than compete with each other. We would have to change how we define status. But these can be done. It's a matter of education, it's a matter of understanding that we ALL are in the same situation, because we are all on the same planet.
It is not like we have anywhere else to go. This planet is dying. Look around, seen the weather lately? Been following the news? Checked out the World Health Organization's site? We have simply run out of time. And it's up to us, the people of this planet to change it. Governments won't... unless we make them.
This game we all play, is all about creating worlds. So lets take that to the next level... and re-create the one we actually live on. So what would you do...and why?
