We were born. We played. We enjoyed the time with our family.  

We had the privilege to attend school and eventually go to university, graduate and find a job in a “respectable” company. 

We followed the path that we were taught. We got into debt to rent or buy a place where to live, pay for transport, food and livelihood. We sacrificed our time, our health and our well-being for money to acquire essential and non-essential things.  

We got immersed in a journey that is considered successful for the world: being productive, paying taxes, voting to choose our leaders, searching personal fulfillment and form a family. 

We did not care much about the impact that our jobs, our purchases, our trips, our recreational activities and all other decisions we made had on the environment, the rest of the society we live in, our neighbours and nature. We were sure somebody else had thought about it and trusted they had taken all that into account when created our jobs, the goods we consume, the way we live and the future we built.  

It took us 25 years to realize that most of what we know today, and thought it was the right way, it is not. Our world and our societies are changing and deteriorating at a pace never seen before.

We are one step away from not being able to offer our children a planet where they can exist, where they and the rest of people can have an opportunity to live and grow older, fall in love, perhaps form a family and age with dignity and prosperity. 

We know there is so much to do to truly transform all that, not only for them but for future generations.  The opportunity to be able to offer them that transformation is our motivation to create Sustainable Existence.
