First of all, the most important thing in all life is health. We are currently under the influence of a virus, covid-19, that has dragged Europe and our country into disaster. This effect has diminished considerably, but there are still traces of it. In 2040, I see that this virus has become an ordinary disease and its lethal effects come to an end. I dream that in 2040 my country Turkey is a part of the European Union and all of Europe sees us Turks as a part of Europe. I imagine Istanbul and Ankara, which blend eastern and western cultures, as the cultural capitals of Europe. I see that the Black Sea has been cleared and all coastal countries including Turkey and Europe have become conscious. The war in Ukraine ended peacefully, and after the war, Ukraine began to develop. Just like in Warsaw, Ukraine has nostalgically rebuilt the destroyed places and UNESCO added Donbass to the world heritage list. Europe did not stay connected to its ancient friend America, and established different trade networks with the east and realized these through Turkey. Berlin-Ankara railway was opened and transportation from Turkey to Europe became easier. Tensions between Greece and Turkey gave way to a close friendship, and Greek in Istanbul and Turkish in Athens became the second most spoken language. Armenia-Turkey land border was reopened after 1993 and armenians, old friends of turks, returned to Turkey, where they could practice their religion and language comfortably. Turkey took the example of Europe in terms of architecture and politics and Scottish baron architecture was used, starting from Istanbul and Ankara. The European Union has invested in all European countries, especially Turkey, Greece and Bulgaria, for social awareness and creative and critical thinking education. The baltic countries developed and caught up with the Scandinavian countries economically. Especially Estonia came to the fore in the fish sector with its huge fish factories. Germany has become stronger than ever before. With an agreement between the Irish and the Turks, the Dublin-Ankara exchange program took place. Accordingly, university students like me benefited from the exchange program between Dublin and Ankara. I see a 2040 where racism ends. I see that the Turkic Council has become a very serious organization and Hungary has joined us. The importance given to the field of psychology has gradually increased and the investments made in this field have also increased. I will be 39 years old in 2040 and I would like to see me as a successful psychologist that day. I hope it will be a patient, egalitarian, critical and modern thinking production. Where I live or what I do is not important, but I want to be of use to humanity. I hope to have visited Iceland and visited the famous Hallgrímskirkja in reykjavik. I want to see global warming slowed down and all people become conscious of it. I wish for a future where Russia is not marginalized and looks European. Yes, maybe all these are dreams, maybe impossible to come true, but we must not forget that thinking about good things always leads to good things. I in 2040, Europe in 2040, the world in 2040 send you my greetings from 2022! I hope everything was for the best!

I would like to see Europe in the future with no migrants, only with culture in every country that existed before. In Slovenia without mosques and immigrants. Job vacancies would be taken up by Europeans, with Europe taking care of the well-being of every worker. Wage taxation would be taken care of. Every job would be respected and paid enough for a good life and the creation of families. In the future, Europe must also stop plunging into foreign conflicts. It must regulate housing problems and teach young people about investing money, which we are not currently devoting to at all. It must put more emphasis on making the euro a stable and leading currency. Volunteering in Europe, such as firefighting the Red Cross, charities, can be adequately rewarded with a higher and rewarded status in society. To put more in the defence of Europe and, above all, the members of Europe must be unanimous, not each in its own way something.. this shows the potential attacker that we are not coordinated, and this is the biggest minus in the defence of the integrity of Europe. All EU countries must have the same vision and quality policy.

Free, easy travel by public transport throughout the EU. Lots of greenery, no overpopulation. Economic equality, not overly expensive (rental) homes. Velig and clean. There is always supervision that can intervene quickly, and streets and homes are well cared for. There are fewer cars and people have faith in science. Veganism is much more popular.

I sit in my garden and breathe clean, scented air.In my sight is a forest and in it a multitude of animals.No private cars,only public transport.Everything is socially owned:my house,the company where I work,health,school... Every household has a dog, cat or some other domestic animal that it takes care of.Human rights are at a very high level and all are respected.At work it is allowed to come with pets.By winter I heat myself on electric heaters, and electricity is not expensive because it arises only from renewable energy sources.My city is full of parks where trees are not cut down because it is rotten. but when it is dried or wilted. The branches of the trees are not cut and circumcised and therefore the movement of people is restricted.

Europe and the world are currently experiencing political tensions caused by several ill-equipped leaders. The Russian president's war in Ukraine makes people feel fearful, and the American president's speeches are just worthy of the title of comedian. These inadequate people rule a large part of humanity, causing chaos, fear and confusion. If the political situation changes, we can continue to live in peace and tranquility without fear of a possible war. Such a future, and I hope that we will live in peace, without fear, and that the government will be represented by intelligent leaders. Utopian society, in which there is no place for corruption, lies, anger, greed, should be an aspiration.
