If I Had a Magic Wand

If I had a magic wand I would make sure we would have the same skin color It would be rainbow, but we could diversify it in these ways. We could choose paisley, plaid, polka dotted, striped or heart skin. Everyone’s hair would be white, we could dye it any color at will. Including rainbow of course. In December we would celebrate our neighbors, learning their customs. Trying not to steal them, even when some of them would be fun to steal. We would share foods from all of our cultures, especially cookies and fudges. We would dance in the streets, and agree to disagree happily about music. We would have a group hug. If I had a magic wand I would give people a glimpse of their true self. So they would be receptive to other people’s customs and habits. Not merely tolerating each other’s eccentricities but appreciating them. Because they would be living their soul dream, and they would want others to live as their true selves also. I would gladly do this for the world, if I had a magic wand.
