Some days i like to daydream.

Make up an ideal world.

Imagine how things could look like.

Like John Lennon did:

“Imagine there’s no heaven

I wonder if you can

Nothing to kill or die for

A brotherhood of man …”

Now let’s imagine:

Imagine

all the governments

of all countries of earth

would use the totality of their military budget

and put it into efforts to reverse the effects of climate change

instead of buying more

and more weapons

Imagine

the super smartest engineers

and scientists from around the world

would work together in co-operative teams to develop and build

and deploy non-exploitive and renewable energy sources

instead of using all this brain power to create new Apps that nobody really needs

and such monstrosities like Artificial Intelligence

that nobody will be able to control

anytime soon

Imagine

all those powerful corporations of the world

and the multinational businesses would decide to work for the good of all the people of earth

instead of for their own market dominance

and the financial gains of a few

Imagine

all the billionaires

and multi-millionaires of the world,

imagine they would donate the majority of their wealth into a global fund

that is used to tackle and solve the most pressing problems that haunt humanity nowadays,

to eliminate poverty, inequality, pollution, plastic, health threats, violence

and all other kinds of social ills

Imagine

organized religions would give up their hold on people’s mind

give up their bigotry and narrow mindedness, hierarchy & power

and their immense wealth and the whole pomp

and artificial ritual that has developed

since the days of the founders,

and simply allow or facilitate

that people can come together

to praise God in their own creative ways

Imagine

for just a minute

that a united humanity

could be the crown of creation

living in harmony with Earth and all its inhabitants

Imagine

God smiling

Maybe collective imagination could actually make all that possible.

What you think?
