128 - TEN ways in which you would change the world if you could.
Just Earth? Or, say, the whole of the universe? Let's go with Earth, then, not that a lot of these won't also apply pretty universally.
1. I'd make you all speak the same language, or at least be able to understand each others'. So many things get lost in translation.
2. I'd make you incapable of judging things by appearances. Really, these arbitrary standards of beauty and worth are just holding you back.
3. I'd more evenly distribute your populations. Without proper management, the denser the people, the worse their conditions of living.
4. I'd eliminate your monetary system. Really, this idea of exchanging goods and services for bits of paper or electrons based on big heaps of metal and wishful thinking is so archaic.
5. I'd direct half of your global industry toward making sure every human being is incapable of wanting for food, shelter, medicine or companionship.
6. I'd direct the other half toward improving and expanding your wealth of knowledge and the sophistication of your technology.
7. I'd point your eyes back up into the skies, because all this fighting amongst yourselves is making you miss the big picture: you're not alone.
8. I'd make you forget this ridiculous notion that one construction of faith and belief is inherently better than any other. I mean, honestly.
9. I'd give every human being a chance to see how the rest of the universe sees you. Call it a bit of "tough love", I suppose.
10. I'd give every human being a chance to see how I see you. Call it a bit of inspiration, just to balance it out.
