My World's Future

My world's future would be like anyone's ideal world, but in my world, we are not all the same.

If you were to take a look at my world, you would see greenery, forests, rivers. You would see nature. If you were to feel my world, be in my world, to take a long deep breath my world, you would feel a healthy, calm and peaceful feeling because of the oxygen in the air, in the most comfortable weather.

In my world you see harmony, joy, understanding, loving. Feelings that do not usually last long in our current world. The reason my world is the place to be is why you think it is. Think of what your version of your world would be. It's already in my world unless it's something like everyone bamboozling one another (ha).

This is my version of our future. My World's Future. This place is Number 2 on my list of safe places. Number 1 on my list is my grandparents' house it is the place where I just feel a sense of peace, joy warmth just everything that I love it's the safest place I know. I know it's mostly because my grandparents live there it is the place where they helped raise me for the first six years of my life and just because I don't permanently stay there anymore, it will forever be my home and my favorite place to be especially with my family.

We don't really have any extraordinary traditions they are extra ordinary. All we have are some Sundays where we all just come together and, in my family, we have important values such as compassion, accountability, gratitude, honesty, respect, humility, love, discipline and kindness.

If I was president, I would make sure that we had the easiest but most fair rules in the world and I would start off with making sure that every single person in south Africa had their rights awarded to them and I would do it, one house to the next. While doing that I would appoint people to do specific things such as check all of the schools and police and fire stations and I would just make sure that every single place in South Africa is safe and not corrupt. The people I would appoint would not have any connection to the field that they are appointed too whatsoever.

I would make sure that there is no trace of apartheid in the country even if the job would only be finished after my death. I would do my best to help all of the kids in what would be my country.

I would become the one president who dedicated their life to making the world a better place starting with South Africa.
