A V-formation flock of geese seems to have one member of the group as the leader, but each member takes its turn at the point of the V, leading the way as the others in the formation honk in encouragement. The geese stay together, even when one becomes sick or injured; the group stays with it until it is well enough to continue the journey at its regular pace.

In a perfect world.......
If I was in charge, there are many things I'd do to make my world more perfect. Just a few of the important things I'd change:
1. Any politician or salesman who lied would immediately turn blue. Come to think of it, ANYONE who lied would turn blue. Thus honesty would be the norm.
2. Virtue and Integrity would be re-enthroned as the most important characteristics to be fostered. Most every other good thing falls into one of those categories.
3. Children would honor and revere their parents and tenderly and lovingly care for them in their old age.
4. Handouts would cease. Hands up would prevail.
5. Hollywood would discover how much money could be made from making only family movies and become innovative in bringing wonderful stories to the screen. No more R-rated garbage would emit from our film capitol.
6. The media would revert to their former "investigate and discover the truth, and report only the truth" mode. No commentaries, just news. No editing the message to promote their own agenda.
7. All four letter words and obscenities would totally disappear from our language, from our music, from books, TV and movies. Proper speaking of the American language would become a priority in all classes and cultures and a source of pride in all people.
8. Every politician and their families would have to obey every law passed and be governed by everything they foist on the American people.
9. No more pork barrel projects. Total honesty and integrity in the government. Every single senator and representative in our nation's capitol and every state legislature would have only America's benefit in mind. No greed. No power seeking. Just serve the people who elected them and make decisions based on what is best for the people, the state and our country. No hidden agendas.
10. And in my perfect world, all crime and criminal activity would be abolished because everyone acknowledged our Savior and Redeemer and tried to be like Him.
There are lots more things on my list, but if we could magically implement those, maybe the rest of the list would take care of itself.

Hmm. I think that was someone's plan, but we voted against it. It's still the goal, but we have to make those choices on our own and unfortunately there are a lot of folks out there who won't make that choice unless they're forced to do so and what's the point of right choices by coersion?
