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?

I hope that in 2040 there will be no shortage of doctors and no such long queues. I hope that all medicine in Lithuania will have improved. In 2040 it will be easier to live, the state will give money to its citizens, I think it will be easier for young families to buy a house, and there will be no shortage of places in kindergartens. There will be no need to have to save for a second pillar pension.

All the children would be warmly clothed and fed. All pupils would learn well and there would be no failing grades. All working people would earn enough to buy the food they want, and wear new clothes. Disabled people and pensioners would also have enough money to buy all the food they want, enough money to travel, and not have to be sad to see people in other countries.

Delusions of a chronically online liberal girliepop
People that aren’t white cis men would have equity and equal opportunities and hate crimes would be punished more seriously than regular crimes of the same seriousness. There would be less cars, more trains connecting europe, more rentable bikes, more trams and less noise pollution in bigger cities (metros). Food that is wasted from restraunts or school caffeterias would be given to people struggling to eat and there would be free healthcare and education for everyone.

In my perfect future, as Europeans, we live in peace with each other, not just side by side. There is no longer a war, because it is not a few who determine a country, but one who determines it together. There are no more poor and super-rich, all people can live well and freely. With energy produced by the sun, wind and hydro, not from gas or other combustion. Those who do not abide by the fundamental values must leave the community.
