Too many people were greedy before, power hungry. Many people had great power but had no mind to use it. Every bit of power that someone had they would just abuse it.
Now there is no one who is greedy and no one with more power than anyone else. Everyone was equal. Our Leader was the only person who could determine what went on in everyone’s life, he kept it very simple which soon became very boring but no one would question what he had done; no one would dare to question what he does in our lives because they know here is a better place. Our Leader made sure we knew that this was the best possible place and everywhere else bad things happened.
If we disobey our Leader we would disappear and never be seen again, were not allowed to question what happens in our lives, it all set out for us from the day we are born. Something happened to me that made me question our leader, something that hurt me more than anything. I had a baby and they took it him away from me. They told me he could not stay that they would take him to a better place, that life here wasn’t suitable for him; he would be different to everyone else. I didn’t understand, no place on the earth could be better for him than being with me. I had so many questions in my head, but I knew I had to believe in my Leader, I had to believe that everything was good now and nothing bad can happen.
Everyone was the same here. There was no one that was different. I heard in other places there was people who were crazy, people who couldn’t see, people who couldn’t hear, people that were crippled, but not here, everyone here was perfect and it was going to stay that way.
I loved my life; I loved our leader for making my life perfect along with everyone else’s. Our leader always told us everything was good and nothing bad could happen, and to this day nothing bad did happen.
Some people had come from the outside, they promised our leader they would do as he says and live life like us. They promised too never tell what happens on the outside but someone had told stories and them stories spread rapidly. Our Leader decided it was best to not let anyone in anymore; they would only try to make our world bad they would make up bad stories to tell us, to get us to turn against him.
You may wonder if I question my life and the way it has been planned, yes. I think about it all the time, I wonder what life is like outside of this place but like a prison, there’s no escape.
