In a Utopian Society...

Maybe I'm a dreamer. Maybe my heart puts these unrealistic visions of the world in my head and it blinds me to some of the things happening. Sometimes, I see these cause-and-affect changes that the world should go through in order for it to be a better place. 

My boyfriend and I had a conversation the other night about the importance of taking care of other people. I fully believe that if we as a human race cared more about the well-being of other instead of our own personal selfish gain of wealth and power, this world would be a million times better, a million times happier, a million times healthier (emotionally, spiritually, even physically). I guess in a way, I have a Marxist way of thinking: where everyone is happy to share with everyone and everyone takes care of everyone and no one tries to trample all over anybody to excel. Realistically, I know that will never happen in the whole entire world, because people are too selfish and evil to care about anyone else. But what would happen if we as individuals took it upon ourselves to be more aware of the need around us? That's all it takes to start a fire of love for other people. Instead of being obsessed over one's own agenda, to open one's eyes to the people you encounter everyday. How easy would it be to simply respond to someone's needs in a way that is attainable for you?
