To the wonder,

Dear Tomorrow,

We should not have squandered the now at the expense of the future. We should have been an Us, not an I. Forgive me for not being grateful more often, not expressing more vividly how astounded I am by the splendor of time. Time gives the web of life so many dimensions of color and shape, never singular, always woven into magnificent connections that have time and you tomorrow threading them together. Dear tomorrow, thank you for letting me ride the wave of wonder that reaches toward you for all generations of all species to come. With my devoted passion to preserve tomorrow so others may look on and wonder, I bow to you.

Dear Future Me: Only open after March 4th, 2050

dear future people (:

I am writing this message to you guys. When I look outside my window today, I see a beautiful world that others and myself call “home sweet home.” The trees glimmering in warm sunlight, the air stirring a cool breeze, and the water flowing down rivers are parts of our home Mother Earth.
 

Hey kiddo,

I’ll be here to tell you all the ways I have fought for the health of our home, and fought to protect all of the wide, open spaces for you to run in. When you’re old enough, we can fight together.
 

Dear grandchild,

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?).
 

Dear Tomorrow,

We only have 11 years left until the damage done by climate change is irreversible.
 

Dear Tomorrow,

I promise to stop using a plastic straw.
 

Queridos nietas/nietos,

Creo que debo hacer más. Por ello, he decidido escribir esta breve carta para empezar un proceso en el que vaya escribiendo más cartas, conforme vaya teniendo más claridad de mis posibles contribuciones.
 

Dear Lalo,

I hope whatever happens, whatever I can’t imagine that you may face, that you will continue to seek light.
 

Dear Tomorrow,

I promise to ditch all the natural gas and go all electric with my home!
 

To my children,

I am working with 350.org on shutting down the coal and unconventional gas industries in our country because I cannot think of a more direct way to protect you, the food, water and biodiversity we all love and rely on.
