This Is My Ideal World In a Nutshell

Have you ever taken a minute to visualize what your ideal world would be like? It isn't as easy as you might think. It's easier to think about what you don't like about the world you're living in. But focusing on what you dislike will not bring about change. In fact, complaining consistently usually makes things worse. To complain is an act you create all by yourself. When you begin complaining about one thing, you attract negative energy and patterns making it easier to complain about more. Don't confuse complaining with having a negative reaction, which is perfectly ok. Complaining can become addictive and the more you do it the harder it is to stop.

So, in my ideal world, I choose to stay away from complainers and I am careful about any negative seed I may be on the verge of planting.

I will also be careful of choosing friends who are negative. I really do prefer the "glass have full" type of people. Compassionate and caring personalites definitely have a place in my ideal world.

"If you don't like something, change it. If you can't change it, change your attitude.~ Maya Angelou"

My ideal world is filled with animals. I know that my Clancey has given me unconditional love for 11 years. Living with this little human clothed in fur with a tail that is royal, teaches me everything I need to know about love.

Puppy mills, animal abuse in any form including slaughtering for food is outlawed.

“The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated”. ~ Mahatma Gandhi

My ideal world is safe and children run free and play without fear. Child abuse does not exist at all in any form. Bullying is unheard of and children are reared in light and love.

"Child abuse casts a shadow the length of a lifetime.” ~ Herbert Ward

Why do we fight instead of loving each other? I've been given many reasons why we fight, which are all unacceptable to my heart. I really think that peace comes from the soul and from living a moral life. In my ideal world, fighting is replaced by love and joy.

All we are saying is: give peace a chance. ~John Lennon~

Either war is obsolete or men are. ~R. Buckminster Fuller~

There are no warlike people, just warlike leaders. ~Ralph Bunche~

Permanent good can never be the outcome of untruth and violence. ~Gandhi~

When the power of love overcomes the love of power, the world will know peace.  ~Jimi Hendrix, American Musician, Guitarist, Singer, Songwriter~

 We must never take Mother Nature for granted and always, always appreciate and protect her.

George Washington Carver said it best~

"Reading about nature is fine, but if a person walks in the woods and listens carefully, he can learn more than what is in books, for they speak with the voice of God.”

How anyone can enjoy a picnic in the "living room" of Mother Nature, then walk away leaving litter, is something I just don't understand.  We don't through left-overs, cans, bags and garbage on our own floor. When I see someone doing this, I walk over to their spot and without saying a word, clean everything up.  Do actions speak louder than words?  I think our actions hold a most powerful message.  In my ideal world there is no litter. 

My ideal world would be filled with fresh fruits, vegetables - grains, everything healthy and plenty for all. No one would ever go hungry and fresh, cool water available to quench the thirst. All food would be grown organically, of course.

The music in the air is accompanied by laughter and delight. We dance to the rythym of the oceans waves, the wind as it strolls through tree branches and droplets of rain kissing each flowers waiting face.

In my world, I sing like an angel, uniting the heart with it's soul. My nimble and pain-free fingers dance amongst the piano keys. At last I can play all 32 Beethoven Sonatas, the complete works of Bach, and every Chopin Prelude with ease and accomplishment.

I am surrounded by children of all ages, colors and forms. I live my childhood as I once dreamed it would be. I am again with my brothers and sisters . . . all of them. We rejoice and are at complete peace.

A family is a unit composed not only of children but of men, women, an occasional animal, and the common cold. ~ Ogden Nash

My ideal world is complete because I am with my family and friends. All those, so dear to me, who have passed on, have re-joined me along with my children and grand-children. We are all together again.

I am the proud mother of three children, two beautiful boys whom I gave birth to and a beautiful girl, and In my ideal world, each one is living their dream and having the time-of their-lives.

. . . and last, but certainly not least, my ideal world connects me with all of my hubpage buddies and friends whom I have never met, except through their hubs and comments.

There is certainly more to mention ~ but after all ~ this is "My Ideal World in a Nutshell".
