My World

My Ideal Place/World:

As I get older my ideas for the perfect world haven't changed much, they have just become less childish and more realistic. When I was younger I wanted to live in a magical world full of knights, handsome princes, wishes that get granted and happily ever afters. I wanted everyone to be friends and to be able to fly. I know some of this is impossible, but a dream doesn't have to be realistic when you are a child. Now I am older and understand a little more of what goes on in this world. I look around me and see the problems of the world and I can not help but think of what needs to change.

In my ideal world there would be no paper money. I believe a lot of problems are caused by that green stuff. We would have good old fashioned gold and silver coins. In my ideal world children would be taught at home to obey their parents and respect their peers and elders. Parents would not abuse their children and children would not backtalk to their parents. "Please" and "thank you" would be use in everyday language. Hard work would be a days work. No one would "get rich quick" because of jack-up gas prices or the lottery. Drugs, alcohol and smoking would be illegal and people would be honest in their dealings. No one would have to be afraid walking to their car at night. It would never get hotter than 89 degrees and never colder than 50 degrees. War would not exist, crime would not even be in the dictionary, and pizza would grow in trees.
