dear tomorrow,

i am sorry. but i had dreams and goals that i was chasing, a selfish act, perhaps i single handedly couldve been the genius that changed the world, but i never took that path.

i instead wanted things that i have never seen, for the benefit of myself and my future. a truly selfish view in a selfish world. i am a product of the 21st century, a technological revolution of vanity and self interest.

so i am sorry in hindsight, but not sorry enough to have dedicated my life toward it. this cause is too big for one man, too powerful for a group of people. it seems unreachable to the masses and i feel now i am at the tipping point of accepting this fate. letting go of any potential world of irreversible effects.

i hope you are the generation to have figured it out, laughing at this message as if it were taken care of within a few years for you. i hope you have gov’s of sanity and humanitarian effort, a utopia of technology running the world, whilst also saving it.

my life enters its twilight, but as it does, i vow to dedicate my twilight to the cause, to further push the planet into a world of net zero emissions and eons of sustainability if that is even possible.

kind regards.

DTA

Dear friend,

I will fight for this cause and I will never ever give up because we, the youngsters, are the hope.

There is a place on this planet called the Amazon, and I don’t mean the online shopping site (is that still a thing in your time?).
