I wake up to compete with the sun, I often lose. I live on a self-driving bus and have given myself permission to grow a beard after I've turned 80. My finances are in balance. Living in a car is cheaper than living in a rental apartment. All my furniture and stuff are old, mostly second-hand. Retirement doesn't have to fight too much bureaucracy to make money. You can also work a little more freely. My motorhome has a good sized kitchen and a separate bedroom. There is a small sauna in the bathroom. There is a small studio in the living area. The car is allowed to drive completely autonomously, no more need for a person next to it. Moving around is easy. Sometimes my girlfriend and I travel a little further. The climate in Finland is starting to be warm enough, especially in the summer. There are still no flying cars, no one has even seriously tried to make them. I don't think they'll ever come. My bipolar disorder has been brought under control when the causes of it have finally been understood. The right diet is crucial. All unnecessary conversational therapy has been eliminated from the treatment companies. I am reasonably happy with my life.

Un idéal
In 2040 we are much more in solidarity with each other, the great fortunes have redistributed a large part of their profits for research and the fight against inequalities. Thanks to ambitious programmes, we are about to put an end to global warming.

It's a sunny winter's day. No more wars and the world is in harmony. Everyone around me is reasonably healthy and there is a cure for cancer thanks to research. Inflation and purchasing power remain more or less the same. The economic situation is improving and the refugee crisis has been resolved. People's fears are no longer being exploited by the media. That's all I want to write.

By 2040, people have become more aware of the animal suffering that comes with a piece of meat on your plate. Fewer and fewer people will eat meat and replace it with other foods. This will also reduce the greenhouse effect and give nature a helping hand. People get fewer physical complaints because they eat healthier and because of this there is also less unemployment among workers. Because we eat fewer animals, that space is exchanged for more nature, which increases biodiversity

Friede und Freundschaft für die Rasse Mensch
Some sunny day in the summer of 2040. I walk in the city park and see the people who also want to go outside to enjoy the day in the sun. They play with the dog, have fun with their children, do sports or just stand together in a small group and discuss everyday things. There is peace in the world, so there is no fear of attacks, acts of terrorism or air defense sirens. I am approaching a group of people – they are my neighbours, all normal and very nice people. They all welcomed me warmly when I moved here a few years ago. We all welcome each other and discuss briefly what we want to do on the weekend. Everyone has suggestions and we briefly discuss everything and quickly agreed on one of the activities. We easily arrange a meeting point and a time. I look forward to showing and telling them about my homeland again - as well as Hassan from Afghanistan, Ahmet from Turkey, Josip from Hungary, Alexandrej from Russia and Mike from England. All just normal people.
