I'd try to help people understand that there is a reason why they struggle, meaning to the methods, and sense behind the madness.  I'd want them to see that there is a reason why God doesn't just hand them the world as they want it. That there are things that need to be discovered, and experienced as they are discovered. No child appreciates anything just given to him, it's through reaching for his dreams that he learns and grows.

I'd want people to understand that they don't need to grow through pain, rather, they choose to, and every choice that each generation makes affects the next. Until they learn to live for the future rather than living selfishly, they will continue to breed disease, hunger, hatred, and crime, etc.

Where do you come up with all these thought provoking questions, Diana?

My answer, well, it would have to do with children. I don't know what. Would I, as God, hug and love every last one of the abused, starving, tormented little things and tell them that I loved them? I couldn't solve all of their problems in one day, but I could love them.

I would try to help people to care about other people again. The last few years I really feel that there are alot of people who are selfish, just care about themselves and do what they want to do regardless if it hurts others. I don't know if it a break down in moral values, loss of religion in peoples lives or just a "want it now" society but things really need to change.

Diana, Krissy and Sue - think you should all be Prime Minister/president - you all have such great ideas!
