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

Utilizar as bases do passado para um futuro melhor
I'd like to see more individual houses with a small plot of land each, where they could have the option of a vegetable garden. I think it's essential to go back a bit to the past, but with the evolution of today, with solar energy for example. An organized and adequate health system for everyone. Waiting times for appointments and closed services are shameful. More aid for small businesses.

2040
In 2040 environmental conditions should be better to respect the environment. Animals should exist in large protected parks. Also the quality of life should be better for all and life expectancy should have gone up.

Condicionantes
In the near future it will be necessary to pay more attention to the climate and to conflicts among the population. We need to be more concerned about the climate. The concern is only with generating revenue, not with the consequences of this exploitation. The choices that have been made by governments create more and more differences between communities, generating more and more conflicts in the search for better conditions.

Οικογένειά στο μέλλον
Family, that's where I think we need to focus. I would like the family to be more close-knit, the bonds stronger and especially the presence of parents. We should work from home and be able to be close to our children. To learn anew to love and share the fellow human being
