Simple, but happy.

This image was generated with Dream Studio AI.

After almost two decades of wars, climate crisis, pandemic and economic crisis, there will be new arising of hope and togetherness. Society will be changed deeply: new forms of community, more co-living, transformed family structures, less urban agglomerates, back to a somewhat simpler but happier life. There will be more sharing of goods, spaces and "belongings" instead of consumerisms and individualism. There. will be a stronger connection, a re-connecting to core values and the sense to work and live not for economic growth, but emotional and spiritual growth. It will no longer be a narrative of "giving up" something but go "gaining" new things, when talking about how less is more... Changing the way how we live in communities impacts how we shape society on a political, ethical, societal level. Change comes from below.

After many wars, the world finally entered an era of peace and prosperity. People have turned to the development of technologies and sustainable life and to helping the only others. Rivers and seas have cleared up somewhat after the human race came up with a device that destroys plastic without damaging it. The forests are green again. Space technology has advanced a lot and we have successfully colonized our moon.

In the year 2040, the waves of world problems have smoothed somewhat, the rulers have finally become a little more reasonable and have realized that life can be much more pleasant without quarrels and without wars. Many developments are being driven forward together and thus quickly lead to success. The hunger in the world, which among other things caused wars and flight movements, was largely defeated after a program to feed the world's population was initiated by the dominant major powers and has now ignited effect. Many regions could thus be made arable and bring first yields, necessary ediments which altogether needed , but occur only in individual areas were distributed according to a fair key worldwide and thus come back to everyone's benefit. At last, most have become clear only together and in mutual consideration we move forward and can ensure survival on our planet.

I would like to see peace finally in the world. I would also like Finland not to always give all its funds elsewhere, but also to be able to demand, in the southern European way, that those who have paid their age taxes here should be treated well and not always, but those who come here. I hope that the health services, the care of the elderly and the police will finally get the funds they need from the begging centre. That we can afford to build elk skills and take care of you. The reduction in the number of criminals has disappeared and a negative residence permit means that you leave the country immediately. Judgments are tougher and society no longer pays lawyers ridiculous fees. Crimes are no longer worthwhile and drug use has been minimized.

I would like to imagine the year 2040 as more unconditionally affectionate. I would like every normal day of every citizen no longer to be filled with meaningless employment that is incompatible with human moral law. compared to today, when the average citizen receives about 10% of 100% of their earnings. In short, his precious time and energy is being abused. And fewer political, power disputes and wars, and more harmonious cooperation and understanding.
