The Future

 The future!  Some think it'll be a paradise with technology so advanced you won't have to do anything anymore.  That the world will be a better place and technology takes over.  I don't believe that we will get a chance to see technology advance too much.  I feel that the future will be horrid, as I believe that most of the world will be a wasteland.  There is so much violence in this world and there is too much tension.  I feel it will eventually be a nuclear war between two powerhouse countries.  We were on the verge of one not too long ago.  I go back to the Cuban Missile Crisis.  The United States and Russia were on the verge of going to nuclear war.  What is to say this kind of situation won't happen again.  There is so much tension between countries and I feel we will ultimately feel the effects of it.  If war could be avoided forever, then the Earth will eventually turn into a Utopia, but this isn't going to happen. If there was to be another world war, there is much fear that it isn't going to be long.  With more nukes now than ever, the war will be even more deadlier.  Once a major war starts, I fear the Earth will completely fall apart.  People will lose hope and the world as we know it would be lost forever.  This I feel can happen at any moment.  Whether it's in a hundred years, in ten years, or even if it's tomorrow, it will come eventually and this life will be forever lost.
