The Future What future? The future is here. The future is now. The next generation can inspire We can admire their ideals Wish aloud they had the power                                                            to make change But they don’t here now We do WE DO We can do more than wish and admire The future is here The future is now Many minds are needed Tackling a worlds’ worth of problems Many minds are already solving one problem at a time here now So many solutions exist So many already pursue them Beware waiting for the “best” one The search for perfection Runs right alongside The path of procrastination Try all the ideas at once Throw everything we have at the wall to see what sticks Use the solutions that are here now Some may say “Best” is worth waiting for Being methodical is more                                                 efficient                                                                  cost-effective                                                                                            safe SLOW The future is here The future is now Find the ones who are already Identifying problems Advocating for needs Bringing solutions Give them the resources Amplify their ideas Scale up their actions HERE NOW Solutions will come from above and below From science and beyond From outsiders and insiders Let’s meet in the middle No mind turned away The future is HERE The future is NOW Say it with me The future is HERE. The future is NOW.
