I'm hopeful for me, I'm learning better with dealing with children already. I hope that patience comes to me, and that my teaching pays off.
I'm also hopeful for a change of government in the UK, the current corrupt cronies are hopelessly inept too and a return to a caring state is long overdue
I'm less optimistic about the climate this year, but hopeful we'll see signs of progress. Shareholder rebellions, ex-colonies sueing first world for climate reparations, and governments investing more responsibly. We shall see. This one often plays on my mind, a future for us all is a big burden to carry, but I do joke to people I work to save the world at the $dayjob
