Family first

This image was generated with Dream Studio AI.

In 2040 I will have a 19, a 24 and 26 year old. I hope that we are able to stay close as a family. We would be able to live in close proximity with each other so I can help my children start their own lives. House prices are more reasonable so they don't have to move far away. I can see them often, child mind my grandchildren and travel with them. I don't want my children to be swamped with debt from huge mortgages, I want them to be able to continue their careers after having children and not have to give up work because of lack of affordable childcare. I us to able to travel together both locally and on ferry to France and UK without it being cheaper to get a flight to Spain for a week than stay locally for a weekend. I want our local government to put people first, building communities instead of just houses. I want my children not to have to worry about going to the doctors because it's too expensive or where will their children go to school because there isn't enough spaces for the amount of houses built. I want my children to be happy and to be able to make memories with them. I want my future to be family!

It would be another weekend ahead. We could visit Berlin again. Or maybe Munich. It's so convenient these days, though, to be able to get all over Europe on high-speed trains. In the past, you had to fly or spend hours on boats to get from one place to another. Now, with tunnels and bridges and high-speed railways and trains from Turku to Stockholm and Helsinki to Tallinn, you can get to central Europe and beyond in a few hours.

It is very important to me that social issues are resolved and that I can draw a secure pension. The election results must be reflected in the majority of the population and there are no more right-wing parties like the AfD. People live happily and contentedly in their countries and there are no more wars, weapons and nuclear warheads are abolished and destroyed together.

In addition to peace in Europe and saving the climate, I want us to have stronger protection for dur. I envision a future where pets, wildlife and livestock are treated well throughout their life span. I see that with AI we have moved beyond the use of animals in experiments. As a fan of guinea pigs, I want modern knowledge on how to keep guinea pigs to be spread among the public so that these beautiful and friendly animals can thrive where they live. I want the unnecessary, commercial breeding of both guinea pigs and other animals to stop; we respect animals on the same level as humans and understand that animals have feelings and a social life just like us.

I would really like to see 2 improvements, changes. Firstly, i would really like for wars, aggression and violence to end. They don’t bring any good to any of us. History is repeating itself over and over again. All these horrible acts of violence are unnecessary, and it would only benefit the humanity if they stopped. The second thing is ecological wellbeing. It would be really amazing, if in these 15 years we could clean up at least a part of pollution that we(as humanity) have made. In that way we would be helping our planet and nature to regain it’s strength again and also making our surroundings cleaner, much more pleasant.
