Future: 2050


The Future Awaits Us!


'The science of today is the technology of tomorrow", said Edward Teller, a well-known theoretical physicist. But in these words, what does tomorrow signify? Is it a mere conjecture of the probable happenings of the future, or perhaps an upcoming alien invasion? Whatever it stands for, we do know for a fact that the future withholds what we fantasize for today. Presently, the materialistic ventures of human beings have amassed to a toxic aura of manipulation, added to the cloaked presence of go-getters. Yet, political pursuits and a change of economy are at the top of this social food chain.

It has been fifty years to the first man on the Moon, and our objectives have been increasing by a manifold. According to me, it is not the future for which we should worry, but instead, we should be on guard for not being able to limit expectations in all dimensions. 2050 is not far, it is merely 30 years ahead and it might be jaw-dropping to realize that it is the same time gap as that of between 1990 and today. Has much changed since then? And in the next thirty years? Well, yes, it is very much possible that we might have trekked the Moon once again, or that we might be packing for our trip to Mars, but still trying to fit our clothes into that one, rugged suitcase, or still trying to figure out the best speakers to listen to our favorite evergreen music on are a few habits that are going to remain the same.

Everything will change. It definitely will. As for me, I’d be in my late forties and a part of the then expected 10 billion population. We look forward to accomplishing everything there is to, but the generation doesn’t realize that in the future, it would not be much about succeeding, but more about surviving. Money and power won’t be the measuring scale for success. Population issues will increase, and we will be fighting tooth and nail for that last sip of water. Can I change the world? Yes, I can, and I will, but in a yet smaller group called the youth where I confront all the ideas that will bring about a leap in our journey. Astronomy being my passion, I am aware that migrating to Mars would not be a leisure, but a necessity. The ‘compassion’ we have shown towards the environment, will dreadfully fight us back. We will be at a war, outside, and definitely with ourselves. Politics’ arduous processes and ambitions will be accomplished, but at the cost of those that nurture us.

My idea is not associated with a shrugged contempt, but with a relentless effort. Technology will have advanced me and all of us to the level that it would not be just about toying with social media posts and likes anymore. The world will stand united, and fight together. My vision towards the new world would be consistent as it is right now, and my unyielding persistence might pay off some day as I do not want the negative to take over. For a cause worth fighting for is all that I will carry with me.

Thank You.

Keeping it Simple

Keeping it Simple The dresses you wear on a party night, The tears you shed for a stormy flight. The way you think the world sees you, Along with all the flaws and insecurities that drive you. Isn't it all hype? Why do we count our flaws, Midway between self-made laws. Who told us to be sad? Who told us to be scared? Who told us to mend every gap? So, why do we have to care? For 'tis forgiving that the world has forgotten, Often being vulnerable like floating cotton. Don't think so much, Just let it go, And watch your destiny open all the doors. You'll soon see a difference in the ocean shallow cradles, Light will drive away the clouds of darkness, And you'll finally see the shores.

Heal The World

Save water. Save trees. Save the environment. Save the ozone layer. Prevent global warming. Reuse, Reduce, Recycle etc. For many of us, these are just some slogans for a poster making competition, do we have the acuity to find the causes for these words, what are they?  Yes, In Science, we may have studied that if we don't save water, there will be a really difficult situation for us in future, for we will be struggling for a single drop of it. It's the state of abyss, for millions of people in many countries of South Africa and other places who are dying for water. What about trees? Have we ever had concern to just plant a single tree in a month, or at least a year or can we plant a tree on every birthday of our family members instead of having pizzas and loud parties. Most of us are having a sense of immortal bliss, that we are blessed with everything, and take everything for granted. Just thank God for what you have, even for the oxygen that you are inhaling. What is the ...
