Education, Equality, and Peace: EF.
What Are
Your Hopes For The Future Of Our Society?
Hope... It’s a simple word and yet
can mean so much to anyone going through a difficult time. It can mean the difference
between hanging on or giving up, a tiny smile in the face or a devastating
diagnosis. It’s one word with no true definition — hope can mean anything you
want to achieve.
Hope is the power to believe that
anything is possible — a fresh start, a second chance, or to wish upon a
miracle. With hope there is an opened window of opportunities or new lights for
reassurance that the possibilities are endless and as long as you believe,
anything can happen. Hope is the beliefs that we're all going to beat this and
a cure for all types of cancer will be found. Hope, believe, strength, positive
thoughts and prayers are what gets me people through each chemo treatment when
they need it because they do not give in neither their families nor their
dreams.
Our society nowadays deals with a
lot of issues that are
affecting the well-being of it, like for example, the
anxiety that teenagers suffer because of bullying, or because of social
insecurity, another negative side can be the fact that countries in the Middle
East or in Asia feel afraid that a war can start in any minute or is not gonna
ever end, in the actual world things aren’t the best in any aspect.
But they
don’t matter, since despite all those
problems, I still believe in humanity, I still believe in society, because it
doesn’t matter how bad things look, I know we just need hope in order to make
things a little more possible. But specifically, my hopes for the future of
society are quite simple, they are only three: education, equality, and peace.
As I said, they are really simple, and not that many, but now I’m going to tell
you better about what my hopes more deeply are.
First of all, education. By
improving education a lot of things get better, the problems regarding bullying
would not be over, but they would be less. Education is the base of the
development of a nation because knowledge is freedom, if the quality of
education of a country improves, it has a guaranteed development in every aspect:
social, economic, technological, etc. Education is the base of everything,
is the basis for the future.
Secondly, equality. It is a
synonym of peace, because if everybody has the same chances, the same
opportunities for having the best health, the best education, the best
environment, etc. then, everything would be fairer. Believe me that the
population would be calmer, because for example, a big part of international
conflicts are caused because of the inequality of resources, and by fixing
that, people would be peaceful, because we all deserve the same opportunities
and chances. So, equality is social justice itself.
Thirdly, peace. Honestly, if we
have worldwide peace, we would have everything, and do you know how can we
achieve international peace? By improving the education of every nation in the
whole world, with social justice, and fairer distribution of resources, I truly
believe that worldwide peace would fix the insecurity problems that are impoverishing
all the countries’ quality of life.
Finally,
my hopes for the future society are simple, and not that difficult and I really
have hopes that these prior mentioned assertions can be possible, only if we
really wanted to and we all make a really big effort to cristalyze it through
eradicating corruption, which is why values at all levels have to be enriched.
