You can promise me a future.

This image was generated with Dream Studio AI.

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

A better and more united world
Countries will have finally worked together to have a more united Europe that shows as one front where countries still have their cultural traits and values, but Europe shows as one front on the political, defence, and economical standpoint. Many policies would have been implemented for an improved lifestyle, especially around ecology/environment for a more sustainable planet, but also around alimentation where fairer wages are paid to local producers and farmers, and consumers have access to better, more sustainable products that are good for their health and the environment, with less chemicals, political corrupted shenanigans around what is available and less third parties taking commissions. Because of its political and economical strength, Europe will be able to help better in the long-term less developed countries in providing a fairer and long-term access to basic necessities, education and health.

in 2040 I would love it if there were no more wars and all the world's population made all the efforts they could to make the Earth a cleaner and more livable planet than it is today, how nice it would be if there were no more gender and color differences

2050
By 2050, the European Union is expected to be a leader in sustainability, digital innovation, and economic resilience. The Green Deal will have transformed energy production, with carbon neutrality achieved through renewable sources and advanced technologies like hydrogen and fusion energy. AI and automation will revolutionize industries, enhancing productivity while reshaping the job market. A more integrated and digitally connected EU will foster seamless trade and mobility. Demographic shifts, including aging populations and migration, will drive policy changes in healthcare and social security. Geopolitically, the EU will play a key role in global stability, balancing partnerships and strategic autonomy.

A Sustainable Future: Balancing Nature and Food
In 2040, I dream of a world where nature and food exist in perfect balance. Farms will use eco-friendly techniques like permaculture and vertical farming to grow food without harming the environment. Cities will be full of green spaces, with rooftop gardens and urban farms providing fresh, organic produce to communities. People will rely more on plant-based diets, reducing the need for large-scale livestock farming, which harms forests and pollutes water. Advanced technology will help grow food sustainably, using less water and land while preserving biodiversity. Forests, rivers, and oceans will be protected, ensuring that nature thrives alongside food production. Traditional farming methods that respect the land will make a comeback, reducing chemical use and promoting soil health. Food waste will be minimal, with composting and recycling systems in place. This future will provide nutritious food for all while ensuring that nature flourishes for generations to come.
