Sometimes we try to create a perfect world out of the imperfect world. For this world to be perfect everything would have to be cold dark and the same (absolute zero). It seems that God didn't want things to be perfect here because things are definitely not the same, not dark and far from -273 degrees Celsius. So let us not always try to make this world perfect and try to learn from the imperfections. C. S. Lewis says something along the lines that as nature reaches towards perfection it does not become more the same but becomes different from each other. He then compares it to good. Here is the actual quote "Good as it ripens, becomes continually more different not only form evil but from other good". This seems to be different then our current society. It wants to make every one the same, eat the same, live the same, .... It seems people are easier to control and make money when everyone is the same.
So God I pray that you will teach us to be different and that we can come together and all share a different part of you.
