Perfection..

What if everything was perfect? The trees were green, crops were ripe all year round, we never overpopuated, no crimes were ever commited. Nobody lost their lives to reckless drivers, to teenagers who's bullies got the best of them. Nobody commited suicide. There were no victims to rape, assault, abuse. Nobody got diseases. No children lost their parents, or abandonned at birth. No babies lost their mommies, no mommies lost their babies. No husbands lost their wifes, no wifes lost their husbands. No depression. No pills. No drugs. No harmful substances to put in our bodies. No school shootings. No mass murders. No serial killers. No abortions. No prostitutes, no hookers. No strip clubs, where unloyal husbands or wifes, could go. Where new daddies or mommies could go to escape their responsibilites. If there were no cheating boyfriends, or cheating girlfriends. What if everything was perfect? That, we will never know. Nothing will ever be perfect. Not in this lifetime. Not in the next. Perfect doesn't exist, and perfect never will.
