I think that the future is going to be beautiful, filled with never ending awe and wonders, where people are free to express themselves. Where they are open minded and let there minds take them to wondrous possibilities. Working towards bettering themselves and there environment. This will probably take a few generations or so (Possibly sooner). I feel that this can be achieved by asking and answering this question:

Can people make their dreams/visions a reality?!!

For the most part, I would have to say YES!!

After all, several inventions and ideas were dreamed up and made into reality by many imaginative/innovative people (Quite a few who saw life differently then others, who continued onward no matter HOW many times their attempts failed, no matter HOW many times other people mocked them and tried to put them down-THANKFULLY they continued onward and emerged triumphant through it all so that quite a few people now have many marvels and wonders to behold, thanks to them). WONDERS that would have been far beyond peoples expectation even a couple hundred years ago, and if they were to look at all the marvels of our world today, most if not all from that era would be left with feelings of total AWE, WONDER, and even HORROR (Which I TRULY believe will not be the case a couple hundred years or so from now, since EVEN through it all, I believe enough people will STAND UP for themselves. Like those many people who THROUGHOUT history have CHANGED the face of the world in which we now live-who I admire to NO END, since they STOOD UP for what they believed in and TRULY made a difference to do their SHEER PASSION and DETERMINATION. I am INCREDIBLY confidant that even though there are SEVERAL horrific things going on in our era, that with SHEER PASSION and DETERMINATION we WILL make it through this so that ALL future generations will live in a TRULY united world where differences are ACCEPTED and even EMBRACED, so that NO ONE will EVER have to live in fear, no one will EVER have to live with DISEASE, HUNGER and so on, with ALL the horrors of the past being NOTHING but distant memories. A WORLD that would leave the people of today in TOTAL AWE, WONDER, and TRULY bring tears of joy to our eyes).

People THROUGHOUT HISTORY have made MARVELOUS ACHIEVEMENTS that have TRULY changed the world that we live in. I will list but a few of the UNBELIEVABLE amount of wonders that have come from the INGENIOUS imaginations/thoughts, etc of some of these people that have made their ways into our lives; The wheel, Telephone, Light bulb, Television, Computers/Internet, Video games (YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!), many amazingly delicious, mouth watering foods/beverages (Bet I'm making you ALL quite hungry right about now!!), etc that have changed OUR lives!!

Not to mention beautiful/innovative speeches, poems/poetry, books/novels, music, art and so on that have YET AGAIN been created by several people who have ACTED upon their DREAMS and VISIONS and came through it ALL with VIBRANT colours and have TRULY opened the HEARTS and MINDS of COUNTLESS people throughout HISTORY, the present, and yes the future as well (Embrace PEACE, LOVE, and UNDERSTANDING for a BETTER TOMORROW!!).

If ANYONE, and I mean ANYONE has ANY visions/ideas that can help bring forth a BETTER LIFE (PEACE, LOVE, and UNDERSTANDING) for themselves, and others, then WORK TOWARD THESE VISIONS/IDEAS AND SO ON NO MATTER WHAT OTHERS TELL YOU AND NO MATTER HOW HARD THEY TRY TO PUT YOU DOWN!!!!!!! VISIONS and IDEAS are what have bought SO MUCH UNDERSTANDING, AND WONDERS INTO OUR LIVES that our dreams MUST BE ACTED UPON, so I urge ALL OF YOU to reach for the stars and beyond, SUPPORTING OTHERS and HELPING those with BRILLIANT, IMAGINATIVE IDEAS (Even if they may seem odd) so that we can ALL move forward and create a world of TRUE AWE AND WONDER FOR MANKIND, the CREATURES, PLANTS AND PLANET ITS-SELF (I have SEVERAL helpful tips that are LITERALLY just a click away which will be GREAT for our planet!! Just click on the "SOLUTIONS FOR OUR PLANET/ ENVIRONMENT" heading in my blogs list and there will be links with several tips, many of which, saving money and the environment "Others that are more costly will also save money in the long run-with all of this leading to a healthier planet for us all). I urge ALL of you who are wanting a better life, STAND UP FOR WHAT YOU BELIEVE IN!!!!!!!, DEFEND AND COMFORT THOSE WHO ARE BEING ABUSED, MISUNDERSTOOD, AND MISTREATED. After all, there are FAR MORE KIND HEATER PEOPLE IN THIS WORLD then there are cruel ones, so for those of you with KINDNESS, GET TOGETHER AS A GROUP WHEN YOU SEE OTHERS WHO NEED A HELPING HAND, OR JUST SIMPLY NEED SOMEONE TO TALK TO, AND COMFORT THEM AND PROTECT THE INNOCENT FROM THOSE FEW THAT TRY TO PUT THEM DOWN!!!!!!! TOGETHER WE ARE STRONG, and TOGETHER we will make an AMAZING FUTURE with SEVERAL POSITIVE CHANGES creating a NEVER ENDING SUPPLY of LOVE, PEACE AND UNDERSTANDING FOR US ALL!! LET us strive to make these changes so that they can take effect even in OUR lifetimes. KEEP UP THE FAITH, and NEVER, I mean NEVER GIVE UP ON YOUR DREAMS, TURN TO OTHERS FOR COMFORT AND FOR SUPPORT ("ALL FOR ONE, and ONE FOR ALL" as the Musketeers would say!!), and we WILL EMERGE THROUGH THIS LIFE, TRIUMPHANT, making future generations look upon this era with PRIDE and NEVER ENDING GRATITUDE (For what we WILL accomplish!!). Let us ALL set a SOLID foundation so that ALL future generations may build upon it!!

I believe that in the distant future (Around a thousand years or so from now-Perhaps even sooner then that) this will all lead to a world that is SOOOO WONDERFUL and AWE INSPIRING that it will TRULY be BEYOND, ANY OF OUR GREATEST IMAGINATIONS, VISIONS and HOPES!!

So I can say FULL HEARTILY that YES I believe that for those who believe in THEIR DREAMS, AS WELL AS BELIEVING IN THE DREAMS OF OTHERS, AND ACTING UPON THEM, that THEY along with embracing PEACE, LOVE, and UNDERSTANDING, that they and us will be the MAIN driving force for an ever so WONDERFUL future.

SO MARCH FORWARD, be sure to SPREAD the word to as many people as possible, and CONTINUE TO REACH FOR THE STARS AND BEYOND so that we may ALL live in a world of NEVER ENDING BEAUTY, WONDER AND MARVELS!!

I have lots of info that I think you will find quite helpful and enlightening:

http://ecowellness.multiply.com/ for excellent inspirational info within my blog to help not only our world and its creatures, but to also open peoples hearts and minds to many amazing wonders that life has to offer. I also have lots of info in my blog to help fuel peoples imaginations to many possibilities that can be found only in the minds eye.

Along with lots of environmental info, amazing environmental pictures and videos (These videos show the beauty of this world and what life can be like if people take the time to appreciate life’s true beauty).

Let us all strive for a greener/brighter future by helping to create a solid foundation for future generations to build upon, so we can hand them a beautiful world, filled with never ending awe and wonders!!

Where peoples differences and uniqueness are accepted, where we all live as one, helping one another so that we can all play our own mysteriously beautiful melodies in the never ending, awe inspiring, song of life :-)

I truly have faith in humanity and believe that someday our lives and the world in which we live will truly be transformed for the better.

The future is bright. Things are better now than at any time in world history. WAY better. Global warming is such a small problem compared to things like the plague killing 1/3 of all the people in Europe. If there were an unknown disease killing that many people today, what do you think we would all be talking about here, disease control or global warming? I'll tell you, disease control! But we don't have to because we have that problem under control. So all you worry warts seize on the only problem we have left that you can worry about, and what a sorry little nothing of a problem it is. Maybe, possibly, decades in the future the weather might not be as nice as it is now, or polar bears might go extinct. But common people will be living better than the kings of medieval Europe.

All I hear is we are all going to die in 20 years, even though nobody is dying now. Hurricanes will kill millions. No way! They used to kill more than they do now, because we can predict them now. New Orleans was not flooded by a hurricane. It was flooded by bad levees failing. The news was full of stories of how the city escaped major damage the day after Katrina. The levees failed and flooding took days to happen LATER. There were past storms that would have done the same thing, DID do the same thing, but people then were tough and knew bad things happen. We are such wimps today!

How do I answer this? With Obama as President - Our Taxes are Higher! On Social Security Disability - which is All we Earned Last year - We Had to Pay Taxes for Our First Time on Disability! Yet we actually got Money from the New State (Arkansas) that we moved to! Obama has Gone Directly Against the Constitution! I Love America and Our Constitution, Bill of Rights and Declaration of Independence! I Love the Way Our Founding Fathers set up this Country and How They Also Too Warned of the FEST of Liberalism in America! They Were Foretelling the Future and they Feared it as Well! Of Course Liberals Deny This and Complain - "Oh They are Dead Anyway!" Like History Doesn't Count? They that repeat the errors of man - Are Doomed to Repeat It! It's Happening! Yet, EVERYONE wants to deny it! So Sad! Obama wants to Limit Freedom of Speech - Religion - and Take Off the Net (it's being discussed in Congress at the President's Request!). So I Say NO as being an American! I Tried to Warn Everyone I Could Not to Vote for Obama on Several Blogs! Everyone called me a liar - Guess what I Didn't Lie! Many who Disagreed with me - Now Call Me Their Friend and I Call Them Mine! Funny how things turn out! They Agree with Me Now Too! Isn't It? As being Christian I say YES! Proof from the Bible - This Is The Latter Days and Not So Far From Now - Our Lord Will Come! Peace to All and God Bless! Jane.

I think the outlook for future generations has more to do with themselves than us. Education has become so important to the future, and the current generation does not take education seriously.

Education is the new caste system. It does not matter as much where you live in the world going forward, what matters is how smart you are. The internet has made the world flat.

I can't predict the future, and I know everything, including us, has an extinction level.
But we love ourselves and life so much, I'm sure someone'll come along or be born some time in the future to figure out what to do or help to fix somethings. Never give up hope.

No, I don't.
The following generations didn't have the pleasure of experiencing the 60's and 70's when life was much less complicated and a safer place to live.
