Everyday when we read the newspaper, we see the problems of the world highlighted – the Gulf War, civil wars, starvation, violence and the destruction of the environment. All these seem to be the order of this world. In my opinion, the source of all these problems is the people and not the world. It is the people who shape the world and have made it what it is today. In a perfect world, the people need not be totally perfect. They may still be jealous and greedy. However, so long as the people do not allow their baser emotions to override their higher principles, there would be no deliberate destruction of another person’s happiness.

As a result, wars would be non-existent. Conflicts and confrontations would serve only as a step to improvement, and not used as an instrument to gain power. Cooperation would reign in the end.

In a perfect world, the people would not only refrain from hurting other people, they would also strive to do good things. No one should be contented unless he can be sure that his neighbor is enjoying the same comforts that he is. Therefore, the resources abundant in one country would be shared with others.

The need for policemen would not be necessary. If people are not selfless and can rely on one another’s good character, there will be no violence.

The sad truth is that it is man who is destroying our planet. Man is filled with greed, selfishness and violence. Hopefully, one day people will collectively come to their senses and make a conscious effort to clean up the mess they have made so far.
