Stories from Our Future
by Alberto Giuliani
One day, a soothsayer on the shore of Lake Baikal, Siberia, told Alberto Giuliani that he would die a violent death sometime between 2020 and 2021. He never fully believed the prophecy, until it was confirmed by a shaman in Vrindavan, India. The shaman told him to always wear a yellow sapphire on his right index finger. The stone would help him choose between life and death, when the fateful day would come. The two prophecies have left Alberto with a hunger to know what the future of humanity will look like – because he may not be here to witness it firsthand. And so, he started travelling, in search for an answer.
