A child doesn't experience racism nor he sees badness in any criminal. A small child wants to play equally with a criminal as well as with a scientist. What I meant to say by the above example is that you create your own world by your own mental desires. Your desires puts you in different circumstances and you experience your life according to your own karma. The world outside doesn't really exist in a sense that objective reality is an illusion. In such a situation, how can you expect total perfection? The world exist only in the state of ignorance. At any given moment of time, you experience your own mind whether it be your dream state or waking state. Therefore, try understanding your own mind. Ordinary human beings try to judge things according to their own past experiences and their own learning capacity. Living freely technically doesn't apply to this Mrityu Loka because total independence is impossible here in this planet unless you are a liberated yogi. So, try adjusting your life with people outside and surrounding environment, you will realize that peace lies within and the art of living is not about trying to modify external world but it is more about adjusting own inner mental thoughts. Be at peace by managing your desires! Otherwise, it can create havoc in your life. There is no end to human desires.
The three main types of desires for any human beings are as follows:
1) The desire for a family (wanting spouse, children, sex)
2) The desire of wealth
3) The desire for fame & power

All your desire hovers around these three main desires. And all your activity in life is for the sake of experiencing more and more delight. Life finds its meaning only in delight. Good luck and be at peace!
