In harmony

This image was generated with Dream Studio AI.

We are living in harmony with nature, with each other, with ourselves. How did it come to this? Money and technology were ruling the world, extracting the resources exponentially and destroying plants, animals, soil, air... It seemed that this approach to economy could not be changed, that everything was geared towards exploiting the Earth to the maximum. People were under the spell of technology, immersed into virtual worlds, virtual networks, virtual communication. Yet, there was rage building up, against the wealthy elites, against the political establishment and the capitalist structures. People started resenting the technology, media, AI, social networks, considering them manipulation tools of the elites. A movement started paradoxically through the social networks, to ditch the technology, ignore the media and ads, revert to more tribal ways of life, exchanging goods and services, communicating and building communities with neighbours, friends, relatives. In some places, there were outright revolutions against the rich, storming the mansions, hacking their bank accounts and burning entire marinas with expensive yachts... Some governments anticipated these shifts and revamped their fiscal systems to reflect the need for human and natural wellbeing, restricting wealth. Those were a very few lucky nations that avoided destruction and bloodshed. It took some years for people to realise what they were missing and what they were searching - closeness with others, with nature, with themselves, without the interference of technology, material goods, virtual realities. With economic systems in shatters, people had to roll up their sleeves again and work hard for their livelihoods, appreciating what nature and their fellow human beings could provide. Hopefully the future will bring new improved models of human conscience so that this life in harmony can be preserved and appreciated, without going through yet another round of rage, destruction and tears.

A better future should encompass vegetation crops on buildings, have solutions for oxygenation, its transport is carried out very quickly, with trams, high-speed trains, people know that they can connect at a high level because they have cultivated and know. School will have innovative solutions, children will not carry heavy backpacks with them. Everything will be computerized. It will know everything about everyone's tastes in fashion, technology, music, anything

Visiting the future imaginary I would like a better world full of compassion that cares about the man nearby. I would like people to be happier, to stop living robotically, to love art, music and pets. Let there be no more pollution, no more frowning girls, let there be no more malice, no more discrimination, and above all let there be peace in the world and in souls.

I want to be happy in a world where not only appearances and money matter. A world where people don't look at each other with hatred and you can let anything go . Nowadays the air conditioning is progressing too fast . I want to improve transport because rising prices make this impossible. Everything in , is so expensive that people are miserable, so I want a better future.
