This perspective comes from an experience I had in a dream that pretty well changed my life forever onward from that point.

I had a dream that I was looking out at my city and to a lesser extent the world, and I saw everyone as an infinitely precious shard of light.

And, the feeling of love was so profound that I understood in that moment that it was the most important thing that there could be.

There wasn't really anywhere up to go from that experience, other than to experience that more fully from a perspective beyond my limited mortal mind.

I do think there's a sort of perspective difference between paradise and utopia. That is, utopianism seems to come from a sort of one dimensional utilitarianism, while the aim of paradise encompasses the highest possible wisdom grounded in experience to drive the beauty of creation done in the light of truth and goodness.
