Voy a ser abuelo

This image was generated with Dream Studio AI.

We are in the year 2040, in April I will turn 60 and I imagine facing my last professional years with a smile on my mouth, with a terrible desire to reach retirement age or already thinking about reducing my work activity to focus on enjoying life. My kids just made me grandpa and this is my biggest illusion now. I will enjoy my people, my friends and acquaintances, the close family and the new entertainment opportunities offered by new technologies. All kinds of experiences that, as always, are best enjoyed in the best company, that of yours, the family you have and the family you choose. My children have jobs that allow them to enjoy life and people more than we have, but we must make an effort so that we all coincide in special moments. We value physical contact very much and prefer this to do it through screens, although sometimes there is no other remedy. 2040 is presented with a relative world peace and we must take advantage of it, people try again to enjoy the moment, the small things, in the face of the flood of technology so necessary and at the same time so dehumanized.

Mijn gedachten over 2050
I would like to see nature and the environment and climate improved again in 2050, so that we have less to worry about that the difference between rich and poor has become smaller, partly due to the new technological developments that we can do. I also expect that internet Ai and things like that will play a much bigger role in the world in unexpected positive is that I do not know yet but we will see that Furthermore, I hope that we can do better in terms of housing than we do now that people can normally buy or rent a house without losing almost half of an income and that we can also live normally once more and not be crammed into too small boxes as that sometimes seems to happen now. And hopefully we have come together a bit more instead of growing apart as we do today. It now seems that we can get into a global war shipping and that makes me worried for the coming time but hopefully in 20 years it will all be over and better and it will be okay.
