OPENING AUTHORITY (ΚΑΙΝΟΥΡΓΙΑ ΑΡΧΗ)

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?

The world is in a calmer phase, the storms of the early 2020s have subsided and humanity can enjoy a meaningful life. We have come to our senses, we no longer spend as much as we used to and we do not always aspire to a higher standard of living than the previous generation. A miracle has taken place and our eastern neighbour is peaceful and there too there seems to be a genuine opportunity to discuss differences and also for the borders of the country to remain in place and for neighbours not to be threatened. The problems facing our planet have led most of us to consider our actions more calmly and to prefer a simpler way of life. Personally, I will be 85 years old in 2040, hopefully still living with my spouse of the same age, either in my current home or in a new easier to maintain home, and getting the help I need. My child is middle-aged and will continue to work in his chosen profession and lead a normal good life with its joys and sorrows.

I would like people to follow Christian values and live according to God's Word - the Bible. I would like to see cures for all diseases, especially the currently incurable neurological ones, and for treatment to be available for everyone. I would like everyone to have a job and at least a minimum subsistence level. I would like every child to have a family. I would like to see no stray, abused, tortured animals, no animals used for experiments and pointless entertainment. I would like people to love each other and build beautiful traditional families. I would like to see a reduction in crime, especially violent crime.

Racism in humanity would be reduced, and if we accept differences, we would be more accepting of sexual minorities, for example. It is possible to get married anywhere in Europe, regardless of orientation, to anyone except a relative. More action would be taken against bullying, and the police would also be quicker to take action against cyberbullying. Yokane would feel more secure in his own country, especially in his own country, and in the countries he wants to travel to. Jokanen has the right to be courageously exactly what he is. Bullying seems to get worse every year. Illegal things happen all the time. Everyone should start to influence things themselves, with professionals helping those who cannot. Culture doesn't matter, skin colour can be anything, you can still be a really lovely person, you can't say anything about someone without knowing them. Change needs to happen. Acceptance & respect for others is a very important part of humanity.

Warmer weer en toenemende welvaart.
By 2040, we have figured out that the enegy transition as well as the circular economy were naive pipe dreams. Consumption has continued to rise as has the inevitable use of natural resources. As a result, bad summers have basically ceased to exist and once in a while we can have a BBQ at Christmas and organize large outdoor events, increasing the sense of belonging because working life is increasingly taking place at home and AI plays a dominant role in the workplace. Thanks to increased prosperity, people go on vacation more often and drones have totally changed the way warfare is conducted.
