Impossibly in reality; embraced by imagination.

It is impossible partly because the idea of a "perfect world" in itself is entirely subjective. My perfect world, more likely than not, varies in one aspect or another from yours.

There are eight main ingredients I would mix together to create a "perfect world" that would serve billions and here is why:

ONE: EMPATHY

We would all possess a striking ability to "put ourselves in someone else's shoes." This ability would spread over all international borders, governmental policies, relationship issues and any other situation in which it is natural to cry me, me, me. Shedding light on another's situation and their feelings will explain their motives and help negotiate compromise that suits a peaceful world.

TWO: UNDERSTANDING
This goes hand in hand with empathy. In fact, they are inseparable. If we learn about the traditions, values, customs, history, etc of another person or culture, we are more likely to be able to experience empathy and therefore have a better chance at peace.

THREE: LOVE
Thing back to the best memory you have. Did it involve love or someone you love? Most likely. Mine does. Love, as they say, makes the world go round. It also leads from empathy and understanding because without those relationships will fall apart pretty quickly. I'm not religious, but I do think this bible verse has a lot of sense and value: "Love is patient; Love is kind. It does not envy; it does not boast. It is not proud; It is not rude. It is not self-seeking. It is not easily angered. It keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil, but rejoices with the truth. Love always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love bears all things, believes all things,
hopes all things, endures all things. Love never ends."

FOUR: CREATIVITY
Self-expression brings vibrancy to this world. We have art, books, music, etc. Without creativity, we al all more or less the same. Creativity come in how we dress, how we spend our time and how we use our talents. It shapes us into the individuals that welcome and inspire love.

FIVE: HONESTY & TRUST
There is not one without the other so they are included as one. Humans are suspicious by nature because we need to protect ourselves both physically and emotionally. Honesty means communication which this world needs more of in order to understand one another. Without trust it is each person for herself/himself. Unity comes from trust.

SIX: GENEROSITY
