The+Future+of+the+World

The future seems very far away, but with each passing day we get a clearer look at what the world will be like in a few years. For all we know maybe there will be no future at all. Armageddon, it’s not completely impossible. All it takes is one country to launch a nuclear missal. Following that there would be a nuclear war in which the world would never recover. It seems plausible when every powerful nation in the world has over one hundred nuclear missals. But one can only hope that these powerful nations resolve their differences and promote peace. It sounds highly improbable.
 * Future of the World Pt. 1**

As the world changes, we change with it. We become older, hopefully happier people. We will see our friends and family die until death comes for us like unwelcome in-laws flock to Thanksgiving dinner. Although it’s the end of our lives there is a replacement for us. They are a smarter, funnier, and better looking version of us. They are our children. They will keep us alive by telling stories of us to their children. Just as we tell stories of our parents.

On a lighter note there are things to look foreword to in the future. Like fashion, it’s always changing. Not always for the better though, well unless you count the disco era. Phew… good thing that’s over. Because I don’t think I could stand to look at my Dad dressed in a white jumpsuit with his collar starched up like John Travolta in __Saturday Night Fever__. There are occasionally people who still think they look fashionable in these warn out cloths. They eventually get a shocking dose of common sense, or they are continually made fun of. Presently there are so many different cliques and styles that it seems it will never end. But isn’t that what every generation thinks. Eventually are cloths will disintegrate and fall away. Lost forever, but permanently stuck in the time stream defining who we were and who we’ve become. After the newest styles fade out who knows what will come next. Maybe someday in the far off future everyone will wear the same thing. Maybe embarrassment will completely vanish and people will walk around naked reverting to primitive instincts. Hold up, this isn’t __Planet of the Apes__. This won’t happen. At least I hope it won’t.

The future is always right around the corner. Whether it is fashion, music, movies, or even ourselves, everything is going to change. So don’t get stuck wearing cloths from the eighties and listening to disco. When there are always new things to try. The next time you think, I wonder if my old jumpsuit still fits. Please, for your own good, just throw it away. I believe Bob Dylan said it the best “The times, they are a-changin”
