Introduction: Borderless World - Physical or Psychological Concept
Is a borderless world a physical concept or a psychological concept? If you have ever thought that a borderless world is possible, then you need to hear me out.
The Illusion of Physical Borders
In theory, it looks fascinating imagining economic activities will be boosted, tourism and other industries will flourish. But in reality, achieving a borderless world is near to impossible. If we somehow manage to eliminate the psychological perspective of borders, then maybe yes. For this elimination, we need to understand the physical borders are just an illusion to distract us in the thinking process.
Psychological Borders - A Product of Dependency
When a baby is born, he is unaware of all the labels this world has created for him but still, he chooses to make a love bond with their mother. Can this be defined as a psychological border? If you ask me, then yes. Now the baby knows who will feed him, whom to cry for help, and who will provide comfort. Borders come with dependencies and limits, and the baby sets his first border in this sense.
Religion - An Invisible Border
When the baby grew up, he got introduced with concepts of religion. This creates another border cause all the ways of life are now different. Those who are left side while remain on the left while the right side will remain on right. A Christian and a Muslim are neighbours but an invisible border exists between them. This simplest looking invisible border was the cause of many physical borders we see in today's world. The physical borders we observe are all results of these phycological borders.
Institutional Borders - A New Form of Borders
If we assume all the physical borders were non-existent for a few moments, what we would observe are institutional borders. For example, a police station operates within a geographical boundary. Some apps are available in some countries only. Even Google search results are different for each country. In a lot of ways, the elimination of these known border lines between countries will not be the end of the concept of borders, and people will form new borders quickly.
Challenges of a Borderless World - Laws, Taxes, and Standards
Okay, so imagine if we were able to move to Pakistan without any border restrictions or visas. Who would determine which laws to follow, and which religious, moral, or ethical standards would guide us in the law-making process? Who would you report to if a robbery happened, and where would you pay your taxes? There are too many "what ifs," "hows," and "whens" in this equation of a borderless world. When we look at the bigger picture, it seems impossible.
The Impossibility of a Borderless World
If we want to imagine a borderless world, we should first define the way of living, social standards, psychology, religion, and many other factors. Considering all this, it's harder to even imagine a borderless world from a logical reasoning perspective. What would it solve? Nothing, and it would even make things worse. Whenever humans try to mess with nature, the results are usually pathetic. Since we can't eliminate the psychology of humans, which results in borders, it will be an eternal loop. Hence, I would like to conclude:
"A borderless world is like sitting in a restroom with no door."
It might seem like a bogus conclusion, but it's the closest we can imagine to a borderless world. Anything can happen anytime, and you can't even focus on your business.

When my dad came home(from job) I was sleeping as someone who never slept for months or years. My dad tried to wake me up and I told him I am still a bit sick (I was feeling that). He let me sleep more. After 4 hours I woke up and till then he don't tell anyone anything. He said to me he had a gift for me. I was probably thinking 0.50$ fries because that's what he usually buy to make me happy. Although I don't told him to bring a jacket for me but he still did. Somewhere in between he already figured out the cause of problem and a solution. Although I don't exchanged any words of complain with him as I believe in #noblamegame . This truely showed the love of father for son.
