Gesund werden und nicht mehr allein sein.

This image was generated with Dream Studio AI.

In 2040 I will be 87 years old and I don't know if I will still be in this world. Now, at almost 72, I am reasonably ill and still take little part in life together. I spend most of my time alone at home in my beautiful 3-room apartment with a balcony. I have 3 children and 6 grandchildren but the contact is not that great. 2 children live near me, but they have their work, their house and their children. There is little time for me. When I need help, it usually works out that they help. How do I see the next few years? I would like to alleviate some of the symptoms of my illness or get rid of them completely.
If that is the case, I would like to fly, not that far. I've never been to a foreign country like Italy, France or even Austria. I've also got to know almost nothing of Germany. As I can't walk or stand for long periods, day trips are not for me at the moment. I would like to get to know a man again, not to move in together, but to go out and be there for each other. My last steady relationship is from 1997. I would like Germany not to be involved in a war and for our economy to flourish again so that we can maintain our social system. I would like to be that old, but who knows that about themselves.

Gemeinsam zusammen
All the houses on our estate are energy self-sufficient. If the individual solar cells are not enough, we have our communal wind turbines, which always produce at high altitude. The profit is distributed to everyone. We only drive a few electric cars and prefer to use our bikes or local transport for most journeys. There are trees everywhere, it's green. Birds on every corner. I work for a company in Ireland. But with home office and fiber everywhere, it doesn't matter where in Europe I work. My son is studying in Denmark. But with the high-speed trains, he can be back here in an hour.

Budúcnosť bez obavy
I would like there to be peace on earth. That all unrest would cease. We are all responsible for what our planet will look like in the future and what relationships will be like, but the higher ups have much more influence over everything. I also hope that nature will be put back in order. We should eliminate the cutting down of trees because they are the main producers of oxygen. Various natural disasters are becoming more and more frequent. Heavy rains but also extreme droughts are plaguing the country in much greater numbers than in the past. This is linked to global warming. It is not only people who suffer during wars, but also nature. I think that nature becomes enormously polluted then. Dangerous substances leak out of explosions and enter the atmosphere, and the soil and, of course, the animals also suffer. I hope that people will realise what is happening to our planet as soon as possible and that we can do a lot together. People are constantly complaining about the political system. I don't know if this has any solution. But it will certainly help if there are road and fair people in politics. But such people are very hard to find. Everything goes easier with good state leadership. There are much nicer interpersonal relations between people in a given country, less quarrels and overall well-being. However, it should be remembered that small changes can be made by man for himself. Try to be better day by day and thus create a more beautiful future for yourself. I hope that the world will only go for the better.

Geluk in 2040
We are in 2040. The world has been transformed. Poverty and hunger are a thing of the past. Technology and humanity work together to create a society where everyone has access to healthy food, healthcare and education. We help each other without conditions, driven by empathy and shared responsibility. I walk through a city where people smile, where time is not money but a gift. I have found myself in this connected world, where my talents contribute to the well-being of others. I used to look for my place, now I know that my place is anywhere I can make a difference. Here, in 2040, happiness is not a privilege, but a right for everyone.

Les transports en commun à l’énergie solaire
I'm imagining public transport that would float above people's homes and whose stops would be accessible by ultra-fast elevators, leaving the public highway free for pedestrians. Of course, these vehicles would be solar-powered and therefore non-polluting. Cars and other motorized vehicles would no longer be able to enter the city center, and would instead use the ring roads, where gigantic multi-storey parking lots would provide access to public transport.
