If your future self could send you one sentence, what do you hope it would say?
It’s okay, humanity survived and transitioned to a much fairer structure; mass extinctions of most species were averted and/or reversed; the sea level only rose a few metres; you’re a published poet and novelist now; all your kids are thriving; cancer was cured; you finally figured out how to successfully grow veggies; you still love to knit!
