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 school. Schools would be freer, there would be rest rooms for students, classes would be longer, and lunch breaks would also be longer. Teachers would use less textbook tasks and give students more project work and vital tasks that stimulate the brain and provide skills and knowledge for real life.

I live happily on the shore. At the end of winter, I can put my small sailboat back in the water to go back fishing and enhance our food. All winter we ate what we sown and harvested. We live comfortably in a self-contained house (roof panel, water recovery). The entire global power grid has been shut down since the various wars. Everyone must manage alone or in community. The more no industry, the more nothing works; everything has to be done again, we find ourselves at the same level as our grandparents in their time. The world has been destroyed by wars, artificial intelligence. The positive aspect is the return of nature and nature, the work of its hands, safety and community life.

Unfortunately, the very things you need for life are becoming expensive. I hope that in the future people, including myself, will be able to live a better, carefree life without regulations, no high rents, affordable food, affordable healthy support, which should actually be a matter of course!!!

I would like the Europe of the future to be without wars and descriminations, I would like it to be much more technological with robots to help us with everyday chores, and I would like prices to be much lower so that we don't have to live more and more in poverty
