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?

Understanding, tolerance, compassion and love for living together
I would like in 2040 for all of us to have decoded that, if anything is to change in how we live together then we need to start today with ourselves. Never ever before have we had such grand and global consensus on what needs to change and the futures we envisage and so little understanding and reflection that we need to start behaving today like the future we want to see. The new future is not going to arrive and impose itself just like that; it will be built from within and become felt and lived by all one day. This requires personal change and also sacrifice. Lots of people intellectually understand the personal change required and agree that we need it but are not willing to sacrifice anything for the 'other' even if the sacrifice is just the time they take to understand 'the other'. They give up easily and early as soon as there is any kind of discomfort. So, everyone wants to live in a better world, but people carry on being disrespectful and nasty, and if not these, then simply too self-absorbed and centered in their own realities of material well-being and consumerism to care for one another and actually do something about it, show it in ways that are not even social-media friendly. If we don't change ourselves for real and for good to become more understanding, tolerant and compassionate, any future we envisage no matter the technologies and innovation, will be unlivable.

United humanity
In 2040, I am soon to be retired and my kids have grown up. I hope that by then, the world has realized that human kind can only survive in peace and by taking good care of earth.

Don't expect your dream to come true! Go and make it happen yourself. (Hayalinin gerçekleşmesini bekleme! Git ve onu kendin gerçekleştir.)
First of all, I would like people to be hired who don't have a degree because they don't have a degree but who knows it very well than someone with a degree. To be read, I would create an environment where readers would experience for a long time. We can do everything ourselves by not wanting anything from another country. We can create a peaceful atmosphere for people in peace. One psychologist per family should be allocated. It is necessary to constantly be able to address the problems and problems of the family. They need to be afforded financially. If you don't have the material power to help someone, you have to give them moral support and provide that environment and a lot of other... I was always hopeful of the future and I still am. It's not going to be so good, it's just that we have to work hard to make everything so good.

I want climate change not to worsen because nature will certainly be heard. Science has discovered vaccines for cancer.
