PBS series: A Brief History of the Future. Think Ahead [View all]

https://www.pbs.org/video/beyond-the-now-ft4j2u/

So, we (me included) are so focused on keeping Smelvis from winning 2024. We don't have to forget about that, but it might help to look farther down the road as well for our own soul feeding as well as giving others a vision of what we'd like to see. The basic idea of this series is to envision what we want for our grandchildren (or if you don't have children like me, humanity).

Please watch it for at least a bit because it gave me a different perspective I need and it might do the same for you. It starts with a scientific finding that, when you think about your self in the future, the same brain area lights up as when you feel empathy for others.
