What if: Love Ruled the World?

What+if%3A+Love+Ruled+the+World%3F

What if there were no wars? no poverty? no hunger? no child labor? no racism? no sex trafficking? no shootings? What if there was no suffering? no brokenness? What if there was no feeling of being unwanted? Of being lost? Of being not enough?What if there was equality? What if there was justice? What if there was love?

Our world would be a utopia. There would be no need for boundaries of land or laws to keep us safe. We would be able to travel freely in the world we live without fear of facing racism or rape. Everyone would get along- love each other.

Would anxiety and depression and other mental illnesses exist? Possibly. But it would be a world where those who suffer from those mental illnesses would not be judged by others or feel insecure or safe. More importantly: a world where people would not want or feel the need to judge those people.

We fight wars to protect, but what would we need to protect from if we all loved each other freely and passionately? no guns to kill soldiers or end innocent lives? There would be no refugee crisis due to war because their would be no war. But if there were war refugees, they would not be turned away- people’s hearts would cry out for them and give them shelter, food, water, clothes and love.

There would be no little girl or boy running to their room when they get home to hide and cry about what the bully did or said to them that day. Their mom would come up to ask what fun activity they did at school or what they learned about the world- not wipe their tears.

What if there was love- not hate?
