Honest present (Iskrena sedanjost)

We talk about the future, but I would return to the past. Mutual relations and respect will be discussed. I believe that they have lost their values through global technological developments and a modern way of life. That’s why in 2040 I imagine a series of sincere talks between all generics and regardless of social attitudes. The coffee conversations will not be interrupted by the disruptive message, the father of the child will be able to engage in entertainment at sea with the children and will not be absent due to phone belling and “urgent” calls from the service. I also imagine animation of children other than playing games on a tablet and looking at cartoons. We are available 24 hours a day via phones, i.e. some can be reached at work 24 hours a day, linking it to the privativities of individuals and separating the job segment and private life. In my home words, I don’t want people to “carry a job home”. I again imagine that we start a frank discussion about the problems of individuals and we don’t sweep the problems, but solve them. Here, I remember Ana Karenina’s book, where the spouses fled up to 4 nights until they had solved all the problems and only then bred into bed.

the future is grandchildren
in 2040 I will be 72 and my children 32 and 31 - I hope I have grandchildren and that they live near. I hope my kids are settled workign and have decent places to live. air and watr are clean. i hope that the weather has settled and the enviroment stabalised - but I doudt it and I think my children will be facing more extreme weather. AI will impact their jobs but not to the extent the pessimists worry. I will be retired - but only just as I enjoy work, i will have a rich cultureal and social life and wont be worrying about caring for othes (those years are behind me). I might need to help my kids finaically just as my parents helped me - but they do ok.

When you sit in a café in the sun, people talk. The cell phones are gone. You look into each other's eyes and take an interest in each other. Respects differences, sexuality, skin tones and attitudes. They no longer judge each other. There is peace and quiet in the world. No one feels superior to anyone else. The focus is on the contact, interaction and respect between people. There is peace and no stress.
