Bildung macht den Unterschied

I wake up to a daylight lamp. I get ready for a job. I voluntarily chose the 5-day week when I could choose between a 4-day and a 3-day week. There is a lot of emphasis on freedom. I can choose and it's no problem to work more or less. I'm not doing it for the money, but because I'm still young and understand that my work is important. I became aware of my work, my actions and the contribution I make to society, to myself and to my fellow human beings at school. Expectations of self-efficacy were raised. Educational institutions have moved away from rigid math, German and English lessons. Sure - knowledge is taught, but above all values. Education is what sets us apart from the world in 2025. People of all kinds are accepted and respected. Open values are taught from kindergarten to university. The legal system has become very strict. Over 1000 euros are charged for speeding - I think that's good! This kind of paternalism protects us.
So I go to work for my 8 hours, buy a slice of cake on the way home by public transport - expensive but delicious, I want to treat myself to this luxury - and drink coffee with my little family. Then I go to the gym. The health insurance companies and doctors have understood that sport is very important. I pay my club membership as a donation and my children's gym fees are almost entirely covered by the health insurance.
After dinner, my older son returns from his community service. This is compulsory for everyone after school. Alternatively, you can choose to do a year's military service. There's no money for it, but lots of experience. But the young people don't mind, because they have been brought up and shaped in such a way that knowledge and experience are worth more than money.

Un jour peut-être..
2040, I come to the end of my life. The years have passed since Vladimir Putin invaded Ukraine. European leaders did not have enough guts to help this , country, they made too many concessions to a dictator. However, in 2019 during a trip, I found Russia, let’s say its magnificent monuments, its interpreters ready to do anything to satisfy me, in compliance of course with the dictatorial laws of that country. They were easy to see that we were being watched. Today, Ukraine has become a dismantled land, occupied by foreign armed forces to ensure its security. But, this masquerade will not hold back a new attack, of Putin, still at the head of the country, very old, but always virulent. President Trump, so-called united states, has made a pact. In France, for my part, we live in safety. My children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren may not know her for good, unless one day the leaders of all countries take charge, become adults, stop fighting over land and natural resources. Like the children's round, hold hands and finally offer them a better world, Where there is universal peace with respect for all and they finally protect nature.

In 2040, I imagine a world where technology serves people without harming the environment. I would like to see a more environmentally friendly diorva where electric and hydrogen cars are completely replaced by internal combustion engines.

Nice
In 2040 the feature is more peaceful in every level of imagination, no wars are present in the world, there is no violence or abuse of any kind. Everyone is minding their own business, but thinking like community and about how their decisions effect the life of thousands, if not now than in the future. Kindness is back in style and is paying an important role in everyones life. It's nice to live in 2040.

I wish for this time, which I will obviously no longer experience, that there are no more criminal and illegal foreigners living in our country, that the foreigners have integrated themselves into our country and all work and are no longer just in the pocket of the state.
