The World Is All Right, But

Some say this world we live in is a perfect one. Others say it is the worst, and then there are the ones that don’t care because for them this world is fine. To all of those people I say wake up. It is important to know that we don’t live in a perfect world. It is up to us to make our own world, the way we live perfect not forgetting that there are problems and bad things happening everyday that may affect us. Pretending that all is wonderful is worst for us because we are not prepared when bad comes to us.

Candid’s tutor Pangloss has the way of thinking that this world is perfect. Since God created the world, God is perfect, therefore the world is perfect. He taught to Candide “that things cannot be other than they are, for since everything is made for a purpose, it follows that everything is made for the best purpose.”(Page 20). It’s funny how some people believe this and think that “all is for the best”. Voltaire is making fun of these people and their optimistic philosophy of viewing life. By thinking this way they omit the part that evil occurs in the world. God is perfect right, so why could he create evil? This proofs my point, every human being knows there is evil then, the world is not perfect. We deny this because of fear of facing the actual things that happen the bad ones.

It is absurd to believe the world is perfect when right now while I am writing this blog people are dying and families are suffering. Even if facing the real world is hard, it is better because you cannot go on your whole thinking nothing wrong can happen, because when it will the only person that will get hit by it is you.
