Since retirement age is approaching inexorably (if not extended), I travel to 2040 knowing that I will already be in a well-deserved rest. I would very much like to believe that old age in our country will be dignified, that in the remaining fifteen years we will reach a level that does not need to think about whether it will be enough for food and medicine to pay taxes. And when we go to a well-deserved rest, we would like to devote more time to culture, hobbies, new first times. I believe that the Lithuanian government will find ways to raise wages not only for itself, but also to correctly assess the time, strength and health that we have given to Lithuania. I hope that health care will also respond to a person here and now, doctors will get a decent salary so that they do not have to look for a job abroad, that we will get help here and now, not in half a year, or we will leave without getting anapilin, because there is a shortage of doctors and a huge queue, doctors work privately, and many have nothing to pay for, even though they have paid insurance premiums for their whole lives.

January 1, 2040 is a day I will always remember. Together with other young people from each of the EU member states, I had been selected to travel from Kiruna in Sweden to the ISS, the International Space Station. It had expanded considerably over the last decade. Arriving at the ISS, we had to go through the first part of the UN Youth Programme UNITY (United Nations International Training Years). The five best of us would land on the moon! I didn't sleep all week after I got that message.

In the future all children will be enticed to graduate and work. There will be work for everyone and and it will be well paid . food will be healthy and good, no war no poverty. Medicine will have made great strides and normal life span will be 120 years. Diseases will know preventable and curable.There will be no pollution because no cars will be used but everything will be electric and the source of electricity will be the sun.No war, everyone happy and content. Of course I don't believe anything I have written is all false. In fact I am afraid that the world will be like in a post-apocalyptic movie, and we are lucky if a nuclear war does not break out.

I would like to see more of a stable living environment in 2040, where people can live safely in their own country, that here in the Netherlands the problems have been solved. That in 2040 we don't have a large influx of migrants, that we are rid once and for all of the haggling over nitrogen standards, that we have enough houses for the Dutch. That movements like KOZP and Extension Rebellion finally deal with the norms of the Netherlands in a normal way, if not that such movements are dealt with harshly and not with the velvet glove. That we have solved the problem with wolves and finally come to the realization that those animals have no space and therefore no place in our little frog country. Furthermore, I hope that my loved ones are healthy and that I may see my children and grandchildren grow up in health e happiness. That I myself am still fit and flexible enough to practice my sport in health and that I can fully enjoy my retirement.
