Since I choose not to have children or get married (at least for the time being), I am one of those people who will not have any children to help me when I get older. I hope I will still be mobile and able to think for myself and by myself when I’m in my twilight years. Most of us don’t want to live forever except a few of us that want to be preserved in some fashion so they can live longer or come back at a later time to live a different lifestyle. The best I can hope for is some kind of reincarnation, which I do believe in and therefore, I don’t want a world to be a place that is worse to live in and harder to survive. That is why I do care about the future as many of our ancestors did not when it concerned a collective whole. Many settlers used resources quicker than they could be replenished and those greedy abused their power and used citizens for their own profit. The generations growing up now are truly part of the solution to whether the world will thrive or destroy itself.

If I come back in another life form, in another human body, I want to be able to eat and drink without wondering where I will find either one. I want to be able to live a better life than I do now. I won’t be able to do this if economic inequality continues to widen between the rich and poor. Sure, education is important to the success of children as they grow into adults but what is taught in the evolving classroom is important. Besides learning the history of any country and the countries neighboring them, the human being thriving as a collective whole depends on children being taught with focus of a world mentality that will lead to further development of being an informed student and young adult. I remember my English teacher in high school stating the competition for us will not be among the students sitting next to you but between China and the United States.

Fast forward more than 20 years and while some of this is correct, the U.S. education system is highly lacking compared to other countries and don’t get me started with our higher educational system regarding cost, access, and meaning. With the scandals of certain universities and the fact entrance into any Ivy League school depends more on economic status than brain capacity, this sheds lights on the increasingly closing door for the average person wanting to attend any average college or university in the U.S. I’m sure there will be similar issues long after I’m gone and certain issues of today will have been resolved. Time is a weird concept. I know I am not guaranteed a long life nor is anyone living right now. I try not to think about this and have my mind somewhere in the middle. There are times the definition of greatness needs to be reinvented. This doesn’t mean giving up and not pushing myself to be the best as possible and at times going past my limits. While I wish my strengths were more geared toward the academic, I have reached acceptance for my life and what it has been and what it might not be in the future.
