Freedom to be

Regarding 2040 I wish all European Citizens and, hopefully, every single human could happily live feeling free to be itself, despite its gender or sexual orientation.

Over the past millenniums human history has unfortunately been a bloody story of domination between aristocrats and plebeians; masses of people and the outcast; royalty and commoners, slaves, and the other underclasses. In a few words, a story of discord, aggression, terror and transgression.

This way, I dream on a future in which equality and the freedom to be will have a feasible and real meaning in this world.
During my life journey I have seen lots of friends and relatives struggling about their sexual orientation, going a long way towards self-acceptance, and, as Mr. Luther King, I do have a dream.

I have a dream that every teenager and adolescent exploring itself and its sexuality wouldn’t need to fight against stereotypes, prejudices, misconceptions or even his/her family and friends to reach acceptance because of been genuine, honest and truly sincere with itself and its relatives.

I dream on people not needing to face mental health issues, and alienation feelings because of this. I dream with my friends not needing to face all the uncomfortable and aggressive situations they’ve faced and they still face because of not being heterosexual.

I have a dream that a world conquered by respect and love to one another, of neighbor, can be reachable.

I have a dream on freedom, liberty and justice.

I have a dream, and hope on human kind.

Un posto in cui restare

In 2040 I would like the valley train to be frequent, even if only every two hours, and for on-call transport to cover the smaller villages, so that a 16-year-old boy can go to play sports or visit friends without the family having to organize for weeks. I would like fiber in every fraction, not as a promise but as a normal thing, because working from home here should be the obvious choice, not an exception to explain. I also wish the school wouldn't close. Classes with five children are a problem for those who organize the numbers, but for those who attend them they are a fortune: You learn differently, with the older ones helping the little ones and with the teachers who know each family. I imagine a mountain school that works with schools in other countries, with online twinning and real exchanges, and where Italian, German and English are spoken well, because languages are really needed here. And I wish young people had a way to do business without leaving. A cooperative that manages the forest and sells its wood in a sustainable way, a hostel run by those who grew up in the valley, a laboratory for the production of cheese or beer with the local raw material. Not everyone will have to become an entrepreneur, but those who want to try should find money, advice and someone to tell them they can do it. I don't know if that's gonna happen. But I know the question is not how to get young people back, but how to make sure they don't need to leave to have a full life. In 2040 I hope the answer is: There are things to do here, there are people to do them with, and someone will one day want to stay.
