What is an ideal world?

I was thinking of this term today…
I wish everyone could have a chance to live happily..
EVERYONE…
unknown people i met on the bus, the security man whom i never saw before this morning, my friendly receptionist, my damn good office boy, my boss, my BIG bosses, EVERYONE….
I wish everyone could have their own ideal world to make them happy..
at least I wish they are having the same chance to live happily as their standard, not hurted, not burdened
but then I think… why God not create it that way?
He must have a very good reason for that…
then it left me the question why in my mind.
As I am trying to understand why…I try to look for the definition of ideal first.
according to my dictionary:
ideal |īˈdē(ə)l|
adjective
1 satisfying one’s conception of what is perfect; most suitable : the swimming pool is ideal for a quick dip | this is an ideal opportunity to save money.
2 [ attrib. ] existing only in the imagination; desirable or perfect but not likely to become a reality : in an ideal world, we might have made a different decision.
• representing an abstract or hypothetical optimum : mathematical modeling can determine theoretically ideal conditions.
Based on the dictionary,
in the first sentence ideal is representing something perfect based on someone’s conception/ someone wish…
and surprisingly, even dictionary already said that it is existing only in imagination!!
What is wrong with this world? why the word ‘ideal’ seems so impossible?
why?
and a week later,
I found the answer…
I am amazed, even feel shock that I can find the answer that fast..
it is as simple as when you have everything that you want,
you will loss desire. you won’t feel alive anymore.
When you get all the things what you want, then you feel empty..
then thats it. done.
thats why the ideal and perfect situation only exist in your mind.
