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

Better than expected
Oh in 2040, will I still be on this planet ... hopefully. AI will have made further and further inroads. The restless and hectic world of big politics will hopefully have calmed down. And very importantly, there is peace on this earth, the environmental problems are in the process of being solved. Naive as I am, I also believe that the migration issue has been resolved. Politics as a whole has accepted all the challenges and is telling people the truth. Bureaucracy has been massively reduced!!!! I will be able to live on my pension. but the most important thing: POPULISM IS DEAD AND THERE IS PEACE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It is a time when everyone has let go of their anger. Where everyone has understood that closing borders and piling up wealth is bad. We have peace and prosperity by helping each other. No one is allowed to escape their obligations to the population, to avoid paying taxes by fleeing to another country. A Europe where we can look forward with hope and believe in better times!

My first thought is that I imagine life for my children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren is a place where life is lived sensibly with peace in the world, 😁 a place where nature is paramount, where the climate crisis is overcome, where artificial intelligence is fully implemented and there is guaranteed to be "invented a new amazing intelligence" that advances the entire world situation.

Vielleicht?!
I want to go into the next few years until 2040 in peace and security. No war, no global conflicts and no threats should be the goal of my journey. Politicians who only look at themselves and have bad thoughts in their heads should grow flowers on their heads. I will nurture and care for them, water and pick them, so that they can still make sense of their existence. Let it rain and snow. It should storm and shake. Everything shall be so tolerable that people, animals and nature do not suffer. Wells full of water will cover the earth and thus satisfy people's only desire - namely to quench their thirst. Perhaps this is all too much to ask. But the evil and wickedness in this world always manages to bring chaos and division. "Do not do to others what you would not want done to yourself". Anyone who observes this will have a pleasant life in 2040. They will be content and will allow others the freedom they enjoy. Finally, there will no longer be any difference between humans and animals. Everyone is allowed to be there. But don't forget about diligence. The desire to create something and help others remains a basic principle of existence. And always with us: the thought of all those who need our help!
