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

The year is 2050. The world has changed beyond recognition - climate change has transformed agriculture and traditional methods of animal husbandry and fish farming have been replaced by high-tech, sustainable solutions. In a small but progressive town in Bulgaria, a young entrepreneur named Ivan runs his innovative beef farm. He was among the first to combine traditional meat preservation in jars with the latest eco-friendly practices. The animals are raised in a completely controlled environment where every drop of water is used as efficiently as possible, and their food comes from organic farms that operate on a closed-loop system. But the biggest change came when Ivan decided to integrate his production with a sturgeon farm. Thanks to new technologies, the water used for the fish is purified and used to irrigate the grass pastures that feed the livestock. This not only reduces costs but also eliminates harmful emissions. Its products - jars of high-quality beef seasoned with natural herbs - are becoming a hit across Europe. Thanks to blockchain systems, every customer can trace the origin of the meat and be sure it is produced sustainably. Once a month, Ivan organises virtual farm tours where people from all over the world can see what the future of the food industry looks like - waste-free, nature-conscious and high quality. And as the world changes, Ivan proves that tradition and innovation can go hand in hand.

La victoire de la democratie
Finally, in 2040, Europe was able to organize itself into a federation. The weight of the new European army enabled Ukraine to regain its independence. This failure was a setback for Putin, who finally lost his job, and for Orban and Fixo, who are tipping Europe into total democracy. America is gradually recovering from Trumpism.

Propala budućnost
I do not think we can improve the ecological situation. Many living things (flora and fauna) will permanently die out and will not leave the face of the Earth. Where there were rivers, lakes...there will be drought, and water could appear in Africa, Australia, Antarctica will be reduced by barely 50% and ice will melt. The rains are too hot, the winters are colder and there is too much climatic change. Robots and machinery are reaching various places. People are more important, technology is the most important. There are fewer ties and fewer friends and lovers. There is less meat and meat products.

The Great Rise
After the Great Powers come to an agreement once and for all and the global deep state collapses, peace will come to the planet. People will create secure societies that are not so dependent on governments. The ambitions of large corporations will be shattered and the planet will take a break from the mass pollution, deforestation, fake medicine, toxic food and a host of other troubles that plague our modern world. The real technologies hidden by us will appear in every household. People will grow quality food and drink quality water. Our entire energy field will change for the better. Evil entities will disappear to make way for light and a new beginning for humanity.
