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

As intermitências do digital
It's a summer's day and Europe is more advanced than ever. Cars look nothing like the cars of just a few years ago. They drive themselves, on autopilot! The boundaries between the real and the digital are very blurred and artificial intelligence has taken over everyday life throughout Europe. Robots are in almost every home and can have a conversation with humans, which is mitigating the feeling of loneliness that, ironically, is very much a result of mass digitization.

The year 2040, humanity has reached an unprecedented level of development. Medicine has advanced so far that virtually all diseases have been eradicated. Life expectancy has increased and the quality of life is excellent for everyone. Personalized medicine is the norm. Each individual has a unique health plan based on their genetics, lifestyle and specific needs. Diagnoses are instantaneous thanks to nanorobots that circulate through the body, constantly monitoring health and repairing any damage at the cellular level before it becomes a problem. Hospitals have evolved into wellness centers where people go to improve their health, not just to treat disease. Regenerative medicine has allowed damaged organs and tissues to regenerate, eliminating the need for transplants. Gene therapies have eliminated hereditary diseases, and vaccines have eradicated viruses and bacteria. In addition, humanity has achieved a perfect balance with the environment. Energy is clean and abundant, thanks to advances in solar, wind and nuclear fusion power. Pollution is a thing of the past and cities are full of green spaces and clean air. Water sources are completely purified and plant and animal species have recovered. People live in harmony, enjoying long and healthy lives. Technology has enabled everyone to have access to education and work, which has eliminated poverty and inequality. International cooperation has led to a peaceful world, where everyone works together for the common good. In this society, human beings are aware of the importance of caring for their health and the environment. Happiness is a constant state, and every day is full of opportunities to learn, grow and enjoy life. This is what the world looks like in 2040: a place where health is completely under control, pollution has disappeared and humanity lives in happiness and harmony.
