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?

Somewhat better I want to believe by 2025 with more choice in technology and less electricity and more solar energy for every energy source, less bullying in schools, less femicides, generally less crimes against women. Climate change over cool summers in Greece

Europa vesela
I would like a greener Europe, where war no longer exists, its peace endures, its tranquility surrounds us, its world is more relaxed. People to be happier, not to take care of tomorrow, to have time for family, to smile more.

I want a future without private cars, just smart cars on call like taxis. There should be no differences between classes, nations and genders. No borders, just one country. Everyone should be equal to everyone without quarrels, without conflicts, without insults, without violence. Love for all should prevail. Kindness and respect for one another. Everyone should follow the same rules as Jesus Christ. Everyone would contribute to this and there would be paradise on earth. Anyone who didn't follow the rules should be locked up in a camp until they changed. It would be really nice if all the inhabitants of the earth lived as one family, never quarrelling. A lot of the technology that causes radiation should be abolished. We should also live in harmony with nature, both plants and animals. For everything is God's creation and we are just a microscopic speck in the universe. Planet Earth and all that is in nature is just one of the myriad little microscopes in the universe. We have almost destroyed everything, and if we do not start to fix it, there will come a Day of Judgement that will wipe out everything that is not pleasing to God, the creator of the whole universe.

I imagine a world where there will be no poverty. Mild cheap forms of energy that provide food at low prices have prevailed. The basic wage has been raised to a level that ensures a decent living. Education is free at all levels except for very specialized subjects. Health care is covered by workers' insurance contributions. Public transport dominates all travel both outside and within cities. There is no car ownership. Everyone rents a car when needed. In the cities, bicycles dominate both rental and ownership. Many tasks are now performed by robots using artificial intelligence under the supervision of humans. Direct democracy is ensured through mobile phone voting. Politicians are elected for short terms and humans can very easily force them to resign if they find they are not performing their duties properly.
