What if everything goes right?
Let’s have courageous, playful conversations about the kinds of futures we love living in.
Open your imagination Aug 28-29 and join a group of people setting aside cynicism, self-doubt, and perfectionism to ponder what exists in a future we love.
There are so many different ideas on what will bring forth the best possible future for humanity: better primary school education? Better transportation infrastructure? Slowing down AI development? Less social media? But it can feel overwhelming to speak to any of them…
Today, you might hold your ideas back for fear of being told you’re an idiot. Offending someone. Starting controversy. Maybe you just don’t want to add to the cesspool of hot takes online. Maybe you feel like the problems we’re facing are so big that you can’t solve any of them, or that your opinion doesn’t matter. What can any of us do to make any of this real, anyway?
Perhaps you’re right. Even so, we think you have something to add. You don’t have to talk about nuclear disarmament, or have a plan for peace in the Middle East to feel into what it’s like to exist in a future you love. What about the experience of falling in love? What about making music? What about spending time with friends and family? What does a future you love contain—what’s the same, and what’s different?
Being optimistic can feel like a big risk. Are we setting ourselves up for disappointment? For endless unfulfilled yearning? For being seen as naive?
We’re inviting those of you who are called to take that risk with us. We see this kind of collective sense-making opening up new possibilities, not only for a better future, but for a better now.
A future we love includes improving the way important conversations online. On August 28-29 you’re invited to be a part of that. UpTrust is hosting on online conference- “A Future You Love.” A forum-style conference where you’re invited to make a claim about what makes a better future. To step outside of what “would” or “could” be and inhabit the positive reality, look back, and tell us about it.
