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!

Robots will work for us and So we can spend more time with our families. We'll spend our days happily and not so stressed out. The government will make decisions so that everyone, from the poor to the rich, will be able to enjoy life, because there will be free or very inexpensive activities, and life will be less expensive.

The climate crisis is not over. We have energies that are climate-friendly. Fuel cells without radioactivity. The climate has also been greatly improved by the fact that population growth has stagnated. Infant mortality is less, but fewer children are born because of education. Not as many people to make an impact. Democracy is fortunately alive again, and we have no definite "autocrats". Our religions have become much more inclusive. Ai as we had feared works ok, it has taken over many of our trivial functions.

In 2040, I would like my children and my grandchildren to live in a safer world, so that there would be no wars, so that they would have healthy food, not so much modified, so that the world would not be so busy that a man would see a man in another man, a brother, a friend. People need to be more supportive and aware. People should talk to each other, not robots. People should take care of forests to prevent them from being cut down, our lungs on this land, so that they are not lacking from the Baltic to the Tatras.

I may not be there in 2040, I'm 50 and I'm sick, I don't think I'm 70!...but all I hope is that my children and grandchildren are healthy, happy, with their families and have a good job so that they can live better than I have lived...I wish that medicine had made serious progress to be able to save all the sick, that there would be no more wars in the world killing poor innocent people and that the environment would be more respected so that the climate would not get out of control to the point of destroying our beautiful planet, that governments would be more understanding and do everything to help the poor people all over the world and save our beloved Earth! Balance and fairness for all! Everyone deserves happiness and health, no discrimination because of the color of their skin, or work more "repecuous" than that of their neighbor, no more dictatorships and disrespect for the poorest and above all no more wars for power or for territories! And take more care of our planet if we do not want to destroy it ourselves, before the time...
