OPENING AUTHORITY (ΚΑΙΝΟΥΡΓΙΑ ΑΡΧΗ)

This image was generated with Dream Studio AI.

The digital age that should mark people’s improved and more comfortable lives has shifted a balance of modern human beings. Any real feeling and experience is now considered obsolete and anything we are new to try, banal. Social networks determine our relationships, which either do not expand or do not evolve to a large extent in their absence. At the same time, society suffers from difficult economic problems. Corrupt governments of states could only bring the situation to the end of the barley. A barbour that can only be crossed with real values. But also. Ethical principles are missing from governments, civil servants, education, young people from all over the world. Every act is considered normal as long as it satisfies our egoism. And if this egoism leads to at least one subtle spiritual investigation or an attempt to rehabilitate the labour market, we are lucky. Because most of them imitate the prominence and dreams. Most try to win the beauty when it should not have a place in their lives. What beauty do we talk to? Each defines it differently. The issue is that what is now considered to be a “coul” is often the one that destroys the whole. But everything is good! The cigarettes in each recess are scattered, such as margarites on a mountain pasture, and the graffiti are fired in the urban galleries, making a spectacle... What beautiful our cities are! Car smoke does not disturb us. Forgotten bins do not tempt us. It is enough that our cities are not flooded by climate change. It is enough that COP27 did not discuss us at all, but about something bitter African farmers who cannot feed their children.

If at least half of these problems could be solved by 2040, I would be happy. But we will find the values to bridge the gap between modern realities and real life?

Lepsza przyszłość
In the future, people will have various cybernetic and bionic body enhancements like in the game Cyberpunk 2077. However, just like there, human qualities like friendship, compassion and other relationships have been lost. We should, as humanity, constantly work on this so that relationships and marriages can manage to survive for years despite problems. Another issue will be the ubiquitous humanoid and other robots. Cars controlled remotely from a phone and watch is a matter of time, a gardener or a cashier in a store will become a relic of the old world. Much will change if not everything. But the world will still remain a beautiful place full of greenery, flowers and colors, but there will be various agglomerations and cities without a shred of foliage and trees, just concrete and buildings.

Frieden auf erden
We all live together in peace and respect, no one has to starve or die of thirst. If we fall ill, we receive medical help. The water on earth is clean and the air is pure. There are no more cars in Germany's inner cities and the cycle paths are safe and well developed. Everyone is in work and people are balanced and friendly.

intercity vervoer
A trip without worries to another European country would be nice. In fact, you could easily, for example, track from Bilbao to Cologne in a few hours in fast trains without too many stops in between. All major cities with about 250 000 inhabitants should be connected to such a network. Currently you lose many hours by constantly changing trains , so people take the plane. The current night trains are a start but the length of time is still far too long.

Vereintes Europa
People pay more attention to the environment and there is no more plastic. They have more time in the day as robots take over many tasks and work is limited to mental rather than physical labor. The countries in the European Union have finally moved closer together and the continent is perceived as a unit rather than fragmented. You can still travel to all member states through open borders, there is a single currency and no war in Europe.
