When I was playing minecraft one night, I started to compile some of my long term thoughts into a 20 page book in the game. I do not care if someone thinks it is crappy in any way, but i feel it is worth uploading. Below is a typed version of the book.

I will say right now, that this book that you are reading s not something to make a joke of, or to laugh about. I am being serious, and everything I will say is how I feel and think. Even in a game so simple, yet so complex, can sorrow and reality reflect off of. A game so simple... a game made out of cubes...it's a dream, really. To think that there would be a world out there as perfect as the one weo re playing right now, through a computer console. This world in many aspects is perfect... too perfect.

These types of false realities are some common examples of heavenly places people wish they could go to...yet they cannot truly exist. We can only control so much in our world, but it can get to the point where we cannot control anymore...and thus we can feel the need to try to recreate a world of dreams, one of amazingly detailed art, of which it is the "perfect" reality. However, nothing is truly perfect. There are flaws in everything, and perfection is simply ones idea of a place or event that gives exact satisfaction to what they were expecting, or how they wanted things to happen. Unfortunately we cannot manipulate "perfection". However, there is no need to lose hope.

Although true perfection may not exist, there are ways we bend the nature of chance itself to suite a persono s wishes. Simply being creative can manipulate the path of fate and the destinies of who fate controls. Unfortunately, changing the paths of nature does not always mean that it can benefit everyone. I would imagine you can somewhat relate to this in some way, for we have all had something away for someone else but not for us. Think of how a King in medieval times could have taken money from his slaves, and he would keep the earnings. This is a perfect example of unilateral gain. It is this type of gain that is destroying the world as we speak. In the year 2012, as I write this,(yes, I realize this is a bit ironic) those higher up from us are taking what we deserve, but they do not see it that way. They think we are weak, and "different". That is because that if they were like us,(assuming that you are lower than rich) they have abandoned the feeling of the moment they gained their power...perhaps not that soon as they gained it, but maybe when they felt they had achieved a higher standard of living.

Now I am not saying ALL people of high status are corrupted by greed, because there are those out there who areno t as heartless as those who are looking down upon us thinking we are scum. there are those who are charitable toward those less fortunate, and of that, I show somewhat respect for them, for this reason; if a person at that status class can with hold that feeling of greed, and still be able to connect to the lives of those who are powerless. I feel they have the will to be thoughtful and become tolerable. For that reason I respect them. Although, the amount of those who are heartless are over powering the number of those who still have respect for the fellow man. We must face the fact that there will always be greed in the world, and that we can never truly eliminate it. But could it be possible to contain it?

Science has saved us many times in the past, so why not at this time? I haven't any idea when, but we have to find a way to increase our empathy and sympathy towards others. It is human nature to survive for a person to survive for their selves, and to take what they can, even if it means taking from others, but what if we could CHANGE that human nature? And perhaps change the hard-wired instinct to take, to per say give and share as a species, but once we get past the point we gain enough power to feel indifferent to those who were like us before we reached corruption point.

I know that there are people who don't reach that point, no matter how much power they have, but they are rare, unfortunately.We are always fighting over countries, people who are the same type of genetic code as we are. But if we are to ever become powerful as a SPEICIES, and be able to help create prosperity in the universe, not just earth, then we must learn to change. Even f we have to change what it means to be human, if it can preserve us. Change is vital to evolution, and our existence revolves around it. But there are changes out there that evolution has failed to seek out and create for so long...but it is only a matter of time until change does occur.

There may very well be a worldwide event that will be a force to change, to become more then what we had originally been. This change is something that cannot be solved by evolution, like the change we have gone through for so many years. Unity is the key, and once we learn to unite the human race, our possibilities can become limitless...
