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

The world finally sets its limits and the wars are over. The selfish assholes have been removed from power, and all people have become so smart that they no longer choose them. Insane consumption and waste has returned to normal. Bureaucracy in all areas has been reduced to a minimum. Children and grandchildren and great-grandchildren have a home, have a rewarding job and many learning and happy children. All kinds of robots and other technical gadgets help people and do not pollute nature. The lush forest is still green and the waving sea is blue and the sun is strokingly warm.

Mobility in Europe in 2040 will be significantly more sustainable, smarter and more efficient. Electric vehicles will replace combustion engines, while hydrogen technologies will dominate freight and public transport. High-speed trains and hyperloops will replace short flights between cities, significantly reducing travel times and emissions, while autonomous vehicles and intelligent transport systems will make movement smoother in cities and on motorways. Traffic lights, car parks and public transport will be linked to digital infrastructure, ensuring efficient real-time traffic management. Shared mobility, such as autonomous taxis and electric scooters, will reduce the number of private cars.Overall, transport will be greener, faster and tailored to the needs of citizens. Smart cities will support the shift to sustainable forms of transport and improve quality of life across Europe.

After the alliance in 2025 between Trump's United States and Putin's Russia, European states have finally realized the importance of acting as a true confederation even in the most concrete areas. In energy policies, movement of goods and people and even in defense and mutual aid. Unity is strength and now we again have an important place corroborated also by the added numbers that give us different weight in all areas, both in environmental policies aimed at the care and conservation of the planet with solutions that are economically sustainable. Preserving cultural differences and taking and pooling technical and technological knowledge for the good of all Europeans.

In 2040, I hope to have aged gently and be able to spend a relaxed retirement with friends. Elderly care will be better, people will be able to meet face to face and the futility of digitalisation will have been forgotten. Welfare and health care are in order, with care available wherever you want it. No one is left alone. Less money is spent on war and much more on people's well-being. Income is more evenly distributed and there is less corruption everywhere. Europe is at peace and the Cold War is just a sad memory. Nature is still reasonably well and climate change has not advanced at a huge rate.
