My view of the future<br />
Living in the modern world and keeping up with new inventions is almost impossible right now. The<br />
fast-paced evolution of technology and science keeps breaking the records of our ancestors and if you<br />
fall out of its flow, it is hard to catch up (e.g., the difference between some developed and undeveloped<br />
countries keeps getting bigger, faster). In the past, it was easier for me to say how I think the world<br />
would be like. Nowadays, I cannot really make a clear picture of it, except for the near future. I hardly<br />
imagine the world 10 years from now, but I will try to give my opinion of the future anyway, or more<br />
likely, my hopes and wishes how the future should look like.In the first place there is, of course, the<br />
environment. Something needs to happen to hasten our anti-pollution and environmentally friendly<br />
movements and I hope for big projects and agendas.<br />
The current situation is bad, really bad and something must happen soon! But I don't mean it is getting<br />
worse by year, just that it is too slow in improving. We will already have electric cars and transport<br />
in the near future, so I imagine the future world being full of these. Moving from the Earth to other<br />
planets, I believe that by the 2040, we will have already visited Mars and the moon, and that travelling<br />
to space will be available for public. By then we will have also started researching the travel to the<br />
mysterious moons of Jupiter in search of water! However, it is still possible that my prediction is way<br />
off. The changes might be even more extreme. Nobody knows what will happen in the future therefore<br />
worrying about it will not do you any good.<br />
Actually, do we even have time to worry? We are constantly hurrying around and we take less time for<br />
ourselves in the age of information overload, so one last thing that needs to be done in the future is to<br />
adapt our mind set to it. We should not need to worry about sudden changes every day, we should not<br />
worry so much about the future. All we can and should do is simply live…<br />
