Мне кажется, что человечество стремится изобрести идеал, в течение всей своей истории. Обращаясь к литературе и искусству, мы можем наблюдать, как понятие идеала изменялось в разные эпохи. А главнее всего, что люди хотели свой идеал создать, представить, увидеть. Это происходило в литературе, скульптуре, живописи. Так возникли идеальные образы. Но они идеальны для художников, которые их создали, и не всегда совпадают с нашими представлениями. Люди мечтали и об идеальном обществе. Но идеальную эпоху или идеальный общественный строй изобрести так и не удалось. Ну что же, возможно, это еще впереди. Но, я уверена, что идеал, тот образец совершенства, конечная наивысшая цель-луч, есть у каждого человека. Мои стремления полностью реальны. Я не ожидаю идеального общественного строя, потому что понимаю, что общество — это люди, а идеальных людей не существует. Поэтому я стремлюсь достичь нормальных человеческих отношений в своем ближайшем окружении. И если каждый человек будет хотеть того же, то, возможно, наша жизнь будет лучшей.
Следовательно, относительно моих идеалов.
What should be the ideal world? I think that in an ideal world, all should be fine. I would like to live in utopia. Where there is no violence, greed, abuse and any aggression. People friendly smile at each other. Enjoy life. And enjoy every day lived on this earth. There is no poverty, no disappointments. All excellent. And everybody is happy. We do not destroy the environment and take care of each other. And no one is afraid to look at in the future, it should be straightforward.
