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

My future is a future without cancer for children. A child should be able to be a child and enjoy playing outside, running, hiding, learning, snacking, sports etc. Enjoying the moment instead of being locked in a room with wires to your body that fights for his life

Ohne Nahrungsprobleme in eine bessere Zukunft!
In my perfect future, no one would have to eat. There would be capsules that would completely saturate and completely satisfy the nutrient balance. Food is an annoying topic for me and disturbs me immensely in everyday life, so such a pill would be the perfect invention. Without wasting time shopping for food, searching for recipes, preparing the dish, or eating, you would have much more time to advance your hobbies or important projects. This time saving could thus be used for further progress for society and can thus solve many other problems.

Quality is important again. Things like quality of life, good care and service are priorities again. People are no longer treated as numbers, but as individuals who decide for themselves how to live or not to live. Values are valued again and people respect each other. People care about each other again, about family and their neighborhood and help each other to make the best of each other's lives. Everyone has a basic income and standard health and oral health insurance. People no longer leave their garbage lying around. All genders and sexualities are fully accepted. Politics become fair and just again.
