My, how long has it been since 2025. The year when things finally started to get better for the earth.
It was November 12, my birthday. Blowing out my 45 candles, I made a heartfelt wish from the depths of my soul: "I wish I could save the world!" And here I am, 15 years later. I am now 60 years old, but the life of every human being has improved so much that 60 years is now equivalent to 40 in the 20th century. I have succeeded in stopping wars, eradicating extremism of all kinds, slowing down climate change, and above all, eliminating all kinds of social inequality. There are no longer poor and rich. Each person is free to be what he or she wants to be. Those who want to work can do so and those who do not want to, cannot. No one is forced. Everyone has the same opportunities anyway. Everyone has a house, everyone has food, everyone has electricity, water and internet connection. Everyone has medical care and medicine, and for many diseases a cure has been found, thanks to scientists who have continued to lend their skills with passion. You travel completely free to go anywhere you want, without the need for red tape. You get on a vehicle and go where your heart desires. Since there are no longer any social and economic differences, there is no need for wars. There are no longer the powerful and the weak. We are all equal. This has also helped alleviate problems such as depression, anxiety, violence, alcoholism, etc.... Because no one has anything to worry about anymore. We help each other, expecting nothing in return with the assurance that we will have the same help if we need it.
Oil and coal were set aside years ago. Only renewable energy is used. The air smells of flowers, woods, meadow and sea, depending on where you are.
Everyone has the same rights. Everyone is free to be who they prefer.

Mijn gedachten over 2050
I would like to see nature and the environment and climate improved again in 2050, so that we have less to worry about that the difference between rich and poor has become smaller, partly due to the new technological developments that we can do. I also expect that internet Ai and things like that will play a much bigger role in the world in unexpected positive is that I do not know yet but we will see that Furthermore, I hope that we can do better in terms of housing than we do now that people can normally buy or rent a house without losing almost half of an income and that we can also live normally once more and not be crammed into too small boxes as that sometimes seems to happen now. And hopefully we have come together a bit more instead of growing apart as we do today. It now seems that we can get into a global war shipping and that makes me worried for the coming time but hopefully in 20 years it will all be over and better and it will be okay.

Education in 2040
In 2040, education is personalized, accessible, and immersive. AI tutors adapt to each student’s pace, while VR and AR bring subjects to life. Classrooms extend beyond four walls, with global collaboration and project-based learning replacing traditional exams. Schools prioritize creativity, emotional intelligence, and real-world problem-solving. Higher education is affordable, with flexible, skills-based curriculums. Learning is a lifelong, engaging journey—empowering everyone, everywhere.

Lepsze, zwykłe życie
In 2040, medicine developed enough that teeth are able to regenerate, albeit to some extent. More and more treatments can be carried out without the need to involve a multi-person medical team. Births take place painlessly, which results in an increase in the number of children. Better organized public transport was introduced, which relaxed traffic jams and reduced air pollution. We have discovered a new, inexpensive way to recover water from rain.

Stipri ir konkurencinga Europa be migrantų
I would like Europe to be safe, there would be no more migrants who break the law and exploit Europe's legal loopholes and people's goodness. I would like the European economy to be the strongest in the world, with manufactured goods meeting standards and being a sign of cocube in the world. I would like Europe to have a political backbone and a greater concern for the people of Europe and their well-being
