If the world were perfect,
Then there would be no perfect worlds.
If there were no perfect worlds,
For what goal would humanity then hope?
For if we were to lose hope,
To what end would we suffer no matter
How perfect our world might be?

Be careful what you wish for, for you might already have all that you have ever wanted. Value it while you can.
