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!

I'm watching fields sown with buckwheat, rapeseed oil, potatoes and beets... some leaves are already brown, some plants are also attacked by beetles, but nothing for that, so I know that farmers don't use harmful pesticides like they used to. On each field grows a different crop. Young people are sitting on tractors. This is nice to see, as they have financial support from the state and the EU to run their farms, which they have taken over from their parents and raise their children in harmony with nature. Where forests used to be devastated by over felling, new branches are now being planted from young trunks that were planted a few years ago.

I would like there to be peace in the world without wars and for the UN to play a stronger role in solving various problems. It would be good if biodiversity loss had been halted and the climate crisis had been resolved. It would be nice if technology and the pharmaceutical industry had brought new solutions to cure various diseases and illnesses. It would be nice to know more about space and the universe, and states and different institutions would work together to counter potential threats from space.

In the future that I imagine I would like to have more facilities, I imagine a more flexible and more paid work environment for everyone and for all types. It would be nice to see less sorrow and more care for people. Even the shortest and least expensive distances from one place to another are so easily accessible

I wish there could be a robot for everyone who wants it. I'd buy it right away. It must be nice to have something like that in the house. He can do all your work, so you have more time for your hobbies, and you are no longer alone and feel like a best friend. Preferably also a robot that can teach me other languages. Really someone who teaches me something, helps me and can also be my best friend. Ideal for solitude. I hope it's affordable.
