Start planning your path after school and what you need to do to get there. What you want to do for a living versus what can sustain you with a comfortable life, plenty of vacation, and good benefits can be very different. Yes, it more than likely won’t be ideal, but it’s a whole lot better than struggling to pay the bills.

A job is a job. The more it pays, the more you can do. It’s as simple as that.

I sort out and organize my thoughts, problem-solutions and a plan moving forward. It takes a while, but I get a sound sleep afterwards

That’s a beautiful pic, as well. The kite seems symbolic, in a way.

That’s a beautiful view. It must be nice to stargaze at night, as well.

Wow, that’s a wonderful view. To be honest, I’d bring a foldable chair and sit there all day if I could. There’s nothing like listening to and watching the waves underneath a beautiful skyline. It must also be a nice and scenic drive going there. I don’t know what I’d put on the stereo to prepare me for it, though. Maybe Schubert’s Wind Quartet in B Moll Major from String Trio, D471, but something light.

Well, over here, I just read and learned about it in textbooks and geography class when I was a kid. Makes me want to move over there even more.

If I didn’t know better, I’d think you’d be living in some fantasy world. Thanks for sharing.

That’s awesome

Wow. That’s an amazing park. I’m jealous.

From my experience, kids can be some of the cruelest people just to fit in/be funny/feel superior at the cost of others. It’s a part of your past and you can’t change that, but you can change who you’ll become. It’s not easy being a good person and you’re going to have tough choices to make, but it’s the right thing to do.

I do understand that abused kids have a higher tendency to abuse others and that is a more complicated issue that this statement does not pertain to.

I also concede that there are kids that never grow up, unfortunately.

Higher global temperature and more drastic weather. Better medicine and medical equipment but with higher costs. Decreasing global population, but more homeless people due to ai software and physical bots. The continually profitting billionaires will control more of the media to influence those below them, ie to have them fight among themselves rather than them. Probably more in “goverments” for more control. Continuing wars just different countries for profit.

This won’t be that big of a difference within that timespan, but the trend will continue as more time passes.

I try to be an optimist, but unless the underclass revolts, it’s hard to see otherwise.

There will be a lunar spacestation, according to NASA, which I’ll be looking forward to seeing, at least.
