When you think of the future, you might think of the inventions, creations, and discoveries that we might create/find.

Some examples of creations we might create are dream recorders or cures for illnesses such as cancer!

But when I think of the future, I think of the people of the world. I think of the good and the bad we will face as humanity. For the sake of the future, we have to have hope. Innovation does not come from constant work, but rather from developing our views, solutions, and our contributions to society!

What does "future" mean to you? You might have said that the "future" is just a word that means: "A period of time that follows the present." But to me, it is all of the inventions that we might be able to create and experience!

If I were able to control the future, I would want it to be like this:

"August 30, 2050, Tuesday morning, I woke up at 8:02 AM to the sound of birds chirping; of course, the birds chirping are Carolina parakeets, which went extinct around February 21, 1918. They were cloned and resurrected when we finally nailed cloning, around the year 2036. Anyway, the birds were standing on the train's overhead line support; the trains pass by so quietly (because they are magnetic) to the point where they can run throughout the entire day! We can support these trains because of the nuclear power plants we have created. In fact, you might be worried about pollution, but truth be told, nuclear energy is one of the cleanest sources of energy; this is because the smoke that comes out of them is actually evaporated water! And the nuclear waste is also stored in highly secure rock vaults after the waste cools down.

No power on the lines

Just magnets

Anyway, as I get out of my bed, I grab my phone and order my coffee machine to make me coffee as I get ready, so I can save time,a bit silly I know, but it's really useful when you are in a rush.

Anyhow, I went and brushed my teeth with my left hand to "activate" my cerebral hemisphere. I do this because it helps wake up your brain, and it helps make neural connections in your brain!

So I brush my teeth, rinse my face with cold water to de-puff my face, and I leave the bathroom to pick out my outfit for the day.

As I walk out, my coffee machine gives me a notification on my phone to show that it has finished my coffee, so I put on my clothes, take my coffee, and leave. Wallets don't exist anymore, and everything is now on our phones. You might think that's not secure because what if someone steals your phone? Well, worry not; phones now only work if your face is constantly showing, thus helping save battery and save bank accounts.

Furthermore, I walk out of the house and get into my car. Cars now are not like how they used to be; no, they don't fly, that would be too much of a risk, since you would need a pilot's license and constant air traffic control at each stoplight! Making it almost impossible, so instead of that, we decided we will leave air travel to airplanes, and we also decided to make cars fully automatic, unless you want to drive in rocky areas or mountains, but if your on a main street or you are just on a road, your car will drive automatically, and they also will drive at a constant speed Of 80kph, yes thats fast, but when you have constant communication with other cars, it would not be a problem, ofcourse your not the one communicating but the cars are, in a sort of telepathic way, they basically go "hey im going 80kph here, is there any car that would have collision with me if i stay at this pace" if not they stay at 80kph, if there is a car that may collide with your car, both cars start slowing down, and so do the cars behind you, and based on the lane or the place you are going, it will help you go first or if you go second, pretty fair in my opinion!

But even if you don't have a car, there is always train transportation.

As my car starts driving me to my job, we pass multiple sky scrapers,infact half of the city consists of skyscrapers and large buildings, the other half being nature, which keeps an amazing balance between humans and nature, giving a sort of Frutiger Aero vibe.

As we reach my work building, I see my friends waiting for me. Today is going to be a sort of group project day; although we're in an office, we are assigned work that helps innovate art forms, like dance, art, and music. Of course, our profession is not as difficult as other jobs used to be, but the reason we work in this job is because robots do the hard work now; builders have been switched out with robots, as a way to prevent the death of hundreds of humans, and we also replaced humans in jobs like coal mining to avoid black lung disease or even lung cancer.

But the main reason of doing this, is to bring world peace, if we do the fun parts of the world, and let the sad parts or the hard parts to non-conscious robots,life will become more peaceful, also the fact that you can now request to work as anything,even an artist, and you would still get paid for it,is one of the biggest feats humans have acquired!

Anyway our day was to listen to music and judge it, if it's good,bad, or needs some minor fixes. As we do that, we get a notification on our phone, the president has been changed to a new one,and he didn't even last for over 2 years,this is because we can now vote if a president stays or not every year,and if their rule is so unfair, we can decide to change our yearly vote to the day that we decide on voting on,so we can change the president, you might think we might keep switching presidentes, but to switch presidents, you must have half of the population to agree with you, so you can not just vote and expect a new president, but half of the community/country has to vote on the president to be removed from his position.

These changes in the government ment have helped us achieve world peace,all wars have stopped, and yes the effects of war are still there, but they are coming to an end, people have been able to care for each other for the first time in ALL of humanity.

World peace has helped us end racism, sexism, and all other types of discrimination against minorities.

Thus helping us get to the level of innovation we are at.

The future I live in is a future with peace; that's the only reason why we have advanced to this point."

What you just read is how I want my day to be in the future, not something so futuristic like time travel or body preservers as if we were in a tv show, but a future with peace.

I want the entire world to be able to hear birds chirping instead of bombs dropping. I want all minorities to have hope for the future; I want all genders to be equal.i want peace, happiness, and innovation for ALL of humanity.
