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

To tell the truth, I do not see a rosy future I would like that apart from the enormous advance of technology social networks disappear and we return to human relationships without idols to reach impossible and without living exclusively for the image, for the opinion of others and for money. I'd like some humanity back.

Un futuro sostenibile
In 2040 I would like a completely sustainable world, with renewable energy, green cities and green transport. Technology would improve life without harming the environment, ensuring well-being and more free time. Climate change would be under control and people would live in harmony with nature.

Hopefully someone will read it and take action. There is an urgent need to solve the housing problem. Creating a family is practically impossible if you have to be in a rented apartment at a high cost, from which the owner of the apartment with a small child can throw you out sometimes grazing him. It is no wonder that there is a decline in fertility in the EU and in lust if young families do not have a basic condition for creating families. Social security. No one asks you how much money you give a month for rent, and you don't get a loan at the bank, which installment would be less than what I'm paying for renting now. Where is the logic here? No wonder people emigrate from their countries to countries where conditions are better. There is no security either, these refugees, whom you say are doctors and engineers, and in fact ordinary monkeys are incapable of adapting to the civilization we have here. They are dangerous, endangering girls, children and senior citizens. You better pay the workers who do the ordinary work well, but there will be enough labour in the EU. On the other hand, we give ourselves a social contribution, beautiful apartments, while we Slovenes by nationality Europeans have to literally mantra to get a rented apartment.. nonsense. Let Europe take care of its people, you will not solve the migration problem in the EU, you can only solve it at its origin! Thank you.

I would like to see an environmentally friendly world where the economy is more evenly distributed between people, where we take care of the environment and animals and have environmentally friendly technology and development. We have a democratic policy that can work together despite ideologies. We are more self-sufficient and don't need to import that much anymore. Domestic sustainable production is favoured. We have a shorter work week and we live a more sustainable life. We eat less with meat and have free healthcare including dental care and optics. We have lower rates of sick leave because of this. We value other influencers, fillers and cosmetics. We have a balance between birth rate and death rate. We invest in research, inventions and industry that lead to sustainability. We invest in preventive measures to avoid crime and war. We work in collaboration in many areas to cope with all of the above. We also work to prevent corruption.
