May my tomorrow include more attention to these details so that you know that I do care.

Dear fellow human,

I have gone through this day with too little attention to the cost I effected on this earth so that I could work for a living, eat meals, have a warm home, wear fashionable clothing, experience comfort. That lack of attention has affected you. May my tomorrow include more attention to these details so that you know that I do care. The worries I have today are so minor compared to what they will be for you if I do not attend to the costs my actions have.

With deep respect.
Diana

More Messages to the Future

 

To my future Niece,

While I will work my hardest to create any positive change I can, you must continue this quest. You cannot give up hope, and you must always remember that the beauty on this Earth is worth saving.
 

To the future generations,

I hope that you all can enjoy the Smokey Mountains in your lifetime too and that they look how they did back in 2017 when I saw them.
 

To older Rochelle,

You should’ve reduced your carbon footprint, should be using some source of renewable energy and be a vegetarian by now.
 

Dear Tomorrow,

I promise I will encourage everyone to get OUT of their cars and onto public transit.
 

To my beloved granddaughters, Margaret and Caroline,

Growing up in Germany, I often wondered what my parents had done to oppose the Nazi regime in the 1930’s that led to WWII.  I was so disappointed when I found out how passive they had been. For me, this was formative.
 

Dear humankind of today and tomorrow,

I do wish to contribute as much as I can, maybe even start a ripple effect, where other people will start taking action too and inspire other people too.
 

Dear Alex and Vivian,

This is my most important work.
 

Dear love,

The world is facing some serious crises right now as Viral pandemic and war situation between Ukraine and Russia.
 

Dear Daughter,

Even when contemplating huge global-historical issues — especially then — it’s important to stay grounded in the present time and place, the specific here and now, and the minute affairs of everyday interpersonal relations.
 

Dear Madeline, Ava, and Harper,

What I wish most for you girls is that the care you have shown each other would extend to the big wide world around you.
 

Dear People Of The Future,

It’s scary, this is the stuff you see in movies about the end of the world.

 

Dear Daughter,

Tonight at bedtime, you asked, seemingly out of nowhere, “why are the glaciers disappearing?”
