I'm feeling a lot of suppression happening with this election. Many seem torn. So I wanted to create a space where you can express how you choose this world to be. I just ask there to be no judgement. ( I use the world "choose" because I beleive it has more power than "want" ) I choose a world where individuality exists but seperation ceases. That way there would be no one side against another. There wouldn't be a need for competition or domination. Now just because I stated my choice of what world I choose to experience, will it just appear? Don't worry I don't beleive that would happen  But I do believe that I can act in the way of supporting such a world and that's what I'm doing. |

Ii I could choose, I'd like to live in a world were there were no wars. I'd like to live in a judgment free world where everyone respected each others' choices. I'd like to live in a world that was environmentally friendly with clean water and air to breathe. I'd like to live in a world of peace.
A girl can dream right!

I would like to live in a religion free world as that seems to cause a massively disproportionate amount of war, death and hatred.

I love your dream  Any ideas of supporting this to experience it more? For instance, every individual can choose to be friendly to the environment. Share your ideas |

In my perfect world, art would be valued as highly as sports. Teachers, nurses and successful entrepreneurs would be as important as actors or singers. Facebook wouldn't exist. We would remember the value of actually communicating with each other which includes listening and not just talking.

I'd like to live in a world where the weakest are cherished and protected, and where there are no divisions of race, sex/gender or class. A kind world is what I dream of.

We would remember the value of actually communicating with each other which includes listening and not just talking. You may enjoy this movie called Time Is Art. What are ways that you can value teachers, nurses and entrepreneurs? And yes I agree that Facebook influences mental connection with family and friends who can easily get together physically but don't or may not as much as they used to. And listening is an amazing thing. I love it when others empathize with me when we have a conversation and I empathize with them. Instead of having the other person waiting for a break in your sentence so they can have their rebuttal. Listening to someone can have very healing effects. Opening a space for someone to express how they feel. |

Yes, in my world I cherish and value all races, genders and classes and send healing and love to the weak. Supporting kindness by expressing kindness to yourself and others. |

My perfect world dream is pretty simple. No physical or mental abuse happens anymore. PERIOD!
I do try to push that agenda by being open and honest about it. How it happens, why it happens, to whom it happens and ways to cope when YOU are the WHO.

We would remember the value of actually communicating with each other which includes listening and not just talking. I don't know about the no Facebook part...it's helped hugely for me to not feel lonely or sad since I moved 900 miles away from my friends and family. They're still in my life, just not physically. I love reading and seeing what they're up to and I hesitated to share my cancer diagnosis there for a while, but after I did, the love and support really has made a difference in helping me feel optimistic and happy. Just like sharing here did |

How it happens, why it happens, to whom it happens and ways to cope when YOU are the WHO. A world without abuse supports trust. A world full of trust without fear. As an empath I seem to attract those who are narcissists. Many seem to express these traits in my family and boyfriend's. And many types of abuse can take place in such environments. Why does it happen? I sense it's an ego thing. Energy vampirism and a need for control. A lack of self love from the abuser too. How to cope? I experience PTSD, and had therapy as a kid but it didn't really do anything for me. Self love I feel is very important in coping and healing the broken subconscious. My personal way of coping is exploring the deeper meaning to why this happened to me and seeing that it has brought me strength and awareness that I use as a gift. |

Just like sharing here did Yes this is one of the good sides to facebook. Technology these days makes it much easier to stay in touch with others that are distances away instead of making costly distance calls to them on a landline phone I had to stay in touch with my mom that way when I was a kid. She would call me for the first have of the time, then I would call her back for the second half. She would always answer with: "My time your dime" |

Maybe, or perhaps people would/could be spiritual but wouldn't need or want organised religion, which lets be honest, is the crux of the problem! |

Yeah the kind of spirituality I beleive in isn't really organized at all. I grew up going to organized religions and so I have experienced both, and the organized religions never did resonate looking back. |

I don't feel it's organised religion that's the problem, it's the people who do the organising. If they didn't have religion it would be something else, but I do think the power/rules/order thing fills a need in the human psyche. I would choose a world in which there was more love and more equality. I hate that some have so much and others so little. But I'm not sure that would work either, because it is a very human desire to want more/bigger/better than someone else. I try and 'be the change' but i don't think I can change the world. |

Those who organise all too often seem to be more interested in the power and influence they tend to have over those who follow their leadership. |

Yes that's what I mean I notice it in any group, that there are always those who try and take control. Religion just gives them an excuse. |

Maybe I'm not human since I don't desire "more" than everyone else  If everyone were the change then I truly believe the world can change. |

I wish for peace among all nations. I wish everyone could afford to live, eat and pay bills without constant worry or struggle.
I wish we didn't rely on government but could independently rule ourselves.
I wish that we could find ways to end poverty and famine.
