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

Utopie ou réalité. Que sera demain
The year 2050. Like Werner von Braun's vision, for the 2000s, we will be in space. Stations on the moon, on March. Closer, on earth, inter-country tensions would be almost eradicated. Global resources being organized for global science and well-being. Aie. I'm waking up. If this continues, we will rather find ourselves as in a ''BD'' of BLAKE & MORTIMER'' with an asisatic block against the rest of the world. And a planet suffering more and more the throes of the climate. Nations protecting their resources and way of life. A return to nationalism, a return to more polite countries and regulated, if not limited, freedoms. It is not impossible either, to consider that the wars of religon are also present. In another form, but real. Utopia, reality.

Algo imposible
For at first I wish I could be in that future and that my family was alive and healthy, that we lived in a more just world, without so much corruption, fanaticism and radicalism in which politicians like Trump, Abascal and all those Fascists disappeared from the face of the earth. A more conscious world in taking care of the planet, with companies willing to earn less to benefit the common good. That pollution levels decrease to 0%. Let there be solidarity and understanding between cultures. Let the religious fanatics disappear. No murderers, no rapists, no abusers. Let everyone care about the elders. That more hospitals be built and have sufficient resources to serve everyone with quality. Let hunger disappear in the world and wars... but above all let the children of the great puta disappear like Trump, Putin, etc, etc, etc, etc. So perhaps the world would be to my liking. While I think we have to fuck around and imagine utopias through a survey like this.

Necessities shouldn’t be a luxury
The future I imagine is one where financial stability is a reality for everyone, especially when it comes to basic necessities. In 2040, I hope no one has to worry about affording essential items like hygiene products, food, or healthcare. Today, even the most basic needs—like tampons and other personal care products—are becoming increasingly expensive, making everyday life harder for many people. In the future, I want to see a world where these necessities are affordable or even freely accessible, just like education or public healthcare. Governments and businesses should prioritize fair wages, stable economies, and policies that ensure that no one has to choose between their well-being and their financial security.

Nowa Europa
Europe, or also Poland, are places where the economy is doing well.People are living well,no problems with terrorism, crime and corruption.The natural environment is in an increasingly better condition due to the abandonment of the robbery economy and the reduction in the use of fossil fuels.We travel freely, without any obstacles, everyone is friendly.Everyone cooperates with each other, which brings tangible benefits.There are no problems with the availability of clean drinking water.There is a clear improvement in the quality of life.There are no health problems because the quality and availability of medical services has improved diametrically.Research has increased the lives of people by 15%.There are no problems with immigration because our borders are tightly protected and monitored.Most production has been automated.Childhood throughout Europe has returned to the level of the 70s,80s, which improved the pension system.Housing resources have disappeared,by subsidizing by individual countries special programs that help people fulfil their dreams.
