READ MOREWhile you may not think the world is going to heck in a handbasket, you don't think things are going well either. Problems seem to be massing, poverty, disease and warlike sentiments seem to be on the rise, and you worry that the future is not so bright and full of hope anymore for your children and grandchildren. <br><br>
There are social issues that do not seem to be getting solved, the rich are getting richer and the poor poorer, and there doesn't seem to be any change in that regard. With a trend like that, we will need more help and compassion than ever if we want to survive the coming decade. It's more important than ever that we treat each other with kindness and learn to live together, because the more problems we ignore with our neighbor, the bigger the chance we will need the help tomorrow. So if you really think the future is in trouble, try your best to add a little good to the mix.
When you look at the future, it doesn't seem hopeless and desperate, like some people claim. Nor does it look like a... READ MOREWhen you look at the future, it doesn't seem hopeless and desperate, like some people claim. Nor does it look like a beacon of shining light, with technology solving all our problems soon. For you, that is idealist naivete. <br><br>
You are honest enough with yourself to admit you can't really see the world changing that much in just a decade. Technology might be a little better, the world a little better, or it can all go downhill and we find ourselves in war, poverty and a planet in peril. You simply can't tell, because the last few decades have been anything but predictable, and you now know that anything can happen in that amount of time to change everything. <br><br>
So, while you may not be doe eyed and hopeful, you do not assume either, you deal with things as they come and try not to waste time worrying about what the future might bring. It's a waste of time and you'd rather use that time to enjoy your present.
You are astounded at the naivete of people who think the future is bright. From where you're sitting, the world is... READ MOREYou are astounded at the naivete of people who think the future is bright. From where you're sitting, the world is going down the drain, with war, poverty, disease, racial tension and sexual tension providing the oil for the coming fire. <br><br>You worry about your children and grandchildren, and you see no way out of this for our species. It's going to be really bad in a decade, and you can feel the tension in the air already. Can anything prevent this dark future from appearing on our doorsteps in 10 years? You hope for a miracle, but you don't think one is coming in time, and people seem incredibly inept in stopping it. You wish you were wrong, but you doubt it.
Many people are screaming about a terrible future. They worry about war, poverty, the climate, diseases and social... READ MOREMany people are screaming about a terrible future. They worry about war, poverty, the climate, diseases and social tensions. But you're sick of their pessimism. <br><br>
Yes, things are hard, but things have always been hard, it's not an easy life at any period of history. And, despite the pandemic and other issues, the world has less hungry people, higher levels of literacy, more social movements springing up and more injustice being aired out and treated. You believe that people do try to improve themselves, and despite all the problems that pop up, the whole of us will continue forward, improve our quality of life and reduce injustice. In 10 years time, things will be better than now, and continuing to do so.
