You can promise me a future.

You can promise me a future.

Dear educators, I have been thinking.
I don't think we should be trained into money making and obeying people

Instead
I think I should make homes for the insects I see hiding in the bushes
I think I should make a warm bath for my guardian
I think I should not be as afraid of dancing with the one I love
I think I should dare to pick a berry from a bush and eat it.

Let me not forget about the ruthless beauty of our existence
Teach me how to love it
How to survive

Curriculum creator, let us utilize our classrooms in the most healthy way possible
to let us slowly breath in and breathe out into a new, sustainable, generation
where both mine and Sarah’s, and Noa’s, and Mischa and Mohammed’s and Aisha’s belly can be full
So that we can play
And progress.
Exist

Curriculum creator, let us merge all documented knowledge to meet our basic needs in the most effective way possible
let me tell you what I need
and then maybe we could create a space within which we can survive
and thrive.

Let me care
And then perhaps
You can promise me a future.

this is a poem i have made about a potential future

Vesela vudućnost
In the 2040s, everything is different from today. It is all a click of a button, a click of a mouse or a click of a finger. There is no more paper newspaper, no more petrol in cars. I drive a new electric car, I do not wear a new car. All my cards and news are in one app on my mobile phone. Maybe that is not good, or maybe it is modern technology.

I would like for there to be widespread sustainable energy usage across the globe. I wish for the national parks to be preserved and for people to place value and emphasis on keeping those places untouched. So many people appreciate their beauty and I want for future generations to experience these areas just as we have.

Felici e a proprio agio
Vorrei vedere una religione umanistica che invece di tenere gli esseri umani al guinzaglio desse loro le ali per diventare persone di valore, dove non ci fossero più discriminazioni di alcun tipo. Le nazioni collaborassero tra di loro per smantellare ogni arma nucleare sul pianeta e ogni altro tipo di arma. Gli scienziati collaborassero tra di loro per creare tutto ciò che può essere di beneficio alle persone

Pestra prihodnost
Umetna inteligenca gre prehitro naprej. Mislim, da bo že do takrat zelo malo ljudi imelo službe, npr. proizvodnja, receptorji, natakarji, blagajničarke, bankirji itd. Teh delovnih mest bo vedno manj, posledično pomeni, da bo vedno več ljudi živelo pod pragom revščine. Tisti, ki pa imajo/bodo imeli denar, pa ga bodo imeli še več. Tudi ljudje bodo boj "neumni", saj jim zaradi umetne inteligence ni potrebno razmišljati. Npr. Chat GPT, copilot itd. Vedno več bo nasilja, otroke bo strah iti v šolo, starše v službe. Sveža hrana (meso, ribe, zelenjava, sadje itd.) bo težje dostopna, veliko bo na kmetih in mislim, da tudi oni ne bodo imeli dovolj za vse, tako, da bo vec umetne hrane. Menim pa, da bo zdravstvo napredovalo v smislu, da bo več zdravil in se bo življenjska doba ljudi podaljšala.
