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.

I imagine 2025 as follows. People will no longer eat in the normal way. Food will be replaced by pills or liquid food. Cars and other means of transport will cease to exist - their replacement will be a teleportation system that can teleport a person anywhere. It will work just like navigation. Overall, there will be less crime in the world to prevent evil. Death has a completely different meaning. In 2040, one can pay for the “extension of life.” by letting oneself be frozen.

I wish that we had a healthy environment, that we were financially procured, that there was healthy food and peace in the world. I also want to make housing more accessible and to have more children, as the situation here is velminst. I also see the turmoil that year.

the best would be a future where both men and women are in power, equal to 50/50, because with the current government there are the same wars, and then they wouldn't have to be. I don't care if they pity the car or not, I just want peace and quiet.

A better future depends on cooperation between individuals, communities and governments who focus on sustainability, education and innovation. Investing in renewable energy sources, promoting equity and inclusion, and mental health care are key. Each of us has the power to contribute to positive change, whether through small steps or larger initiatives. Together, we can build a world that is fairer, healthier and full of opportunities. So it's kind of my point of view
