Afraid about the future
I've read old, even ancient writings complaining about the future. Our children are impolite, things are changing too fast, arabic numbers will destroy the Roman Empire, human are not fit to move into cars, and so on.
But this time it is for real. Communications, computers, biotechnology, robotics, genetics, nuclear power... where are we going to? Where are we end up?
I know all these new techs have a lot ot fantastic possibilities and they can help us in a lot of ways, but I can't avoid it. If I have to chose between utopia and dystopia, today I feel dystopic.

I know all these new techs have a lot ot of fantastic possibilities and they can help us in a lot of ways, but I can't avoid worrying about it. If I have to chose between utopia and dystopia, today I feel dystopicwould choose the dystopia.
Some things in your writing are better in speech, I think. For example, I really don't like abbreviations like "I've" in formal writing. I would prefer "I have". Similarly, we use "a lot of" frequently when we speak, but are more likely to say "many" when we write. You are not making mistakes; it is just a matter of becoming more familiar with English in its written and spoken forms.
