I Wish…
In the modern world of advanced technology, robotics, and AI,
Where gadgets and screens are ever-present before a human eye,
I wish you to be willing to welcome Nature back into your life
So that it could help your curiosity and sense of beauty to revive.
In the world of insatiable desires and never-ceasing consumption,
Where without shopping our economy simply does not function,
I wish you to enjoy Nature in all its creations and manifestations –
Ecosystems and their inhabitants outside our greedy civilization.
In the world of busyness, hustle, and overwork, let us not deny,
Where people mistake these for productivity and even glorify,
I wish you to have sufficient time for proper rest and relaxation,
And Nature to assist you in physical and mental revitalisation.
In the world of conflicts, mutual hatred, and devastating wars,
Where those in power try to close more and more liberty doors,
I wish you to find and enjoy quietness, peace, and tranquillity,
And Nature to kindly offer you multiple times this possibility.
In the world of individualism and egos that are frequently inflated,
Where people become from each other increasingly separated,
I wish you to strengthen your connection with all Nature around,
Where opportunities for collective activities and joy can be found.
In the world of omnipresent waste and life-threatening pollution,
Where our industry tends to create more problems than solutions,
I wish you to maintain clarity and purity of your body and mind,
And in Nature plenty of opportunities for this purification to find.
In the world of climate change and natural disasters raging on,
Where global solutions to these issues still cannot be agreed upon,
I wish you to be capable of adapting to the ever-changing situation
And in Nature to seek and find ways for our common salvation.
In the world of the natural environment being largely disrespected,
Where its contribution to our well-being is oftentimes neglected,
I wish you to show Nature your attention, care, love, and concern
And to appreciate what you, as well as all of us, receive in return.
In the upcoming year inevitably full of new challenges and events,
When also new opportunities will present themselves nevertheless,
I wish you Nature’s resilience and adaptability not only to survive
But also in this complex world to change, grow, succeed, and thrive.
