Understanding, tolerance, compassion and love for living together

This image was generated with Dream Studio AI.

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.

By 2040, our society and that of the world will be so prosperous that people will not be reduced to scams, thefts, tunnelling, or even wars. The land will belong equally to the rich and the poor. We will protect nature, not devastate it, because we will finally realize what it can give us if we take good care of it and protect it. People will not starve because there will be enough food for everyone. It will be a world of abundance and satisfaction for all, both for humans and animals. We will not envy each other because everyone will have the basics and it will depend only on each of us how we arrange it. It will be a world where one can live happily, and for diseases for which there are no medicines yet, immediate diagnosis and treatment will be possible.

I don't think there's such a long time until 2040, ,, that a lot has changed. I would like to see all illnesses cured. It would also be nice if there wasn't much work to do. I hope the robots work for us. And so everyone can do pleasant things, for example, travel. It would also be good if there were no poverty, everyone would have decent housing and a nice life. I hope no one abuses animals because it doesn't belong. I'm already retired , but I would like to travel a lot and see the beauty of the place.
