Yeah... The world is gonna end in 2012. So this is what I'm hearing all over the place. This is the big event...
Is this what we now have to look forward to every Jan. until 2012?
Dear lord... Does anyone else remember the year 2000? If I recall... All year everyone who was anyone said over and over again "All the computers are going to shut down at midnight! All the power is going to go out and nuclear bombs are gonna go off because they don't have computers anymore!" Guess what folks... I still log onto my computer every day. Know what I was doing at midnight on 2000? I was chatting on my favorite chat server. In the middle of a RPG to. In fact I almost missed the ball dropping. If it hadn't been for my mother telling me the ball was about to drop I would have.
Nothing went off. Nothing even hitched. Hell the server I use to chat on at the time was known for going down at the drop of a hat. (This included weather conditions) Even it didn't go off when the new year hit.
Though admittedly I am the granddaughter of one who still has water and ammo stalked away from that time...
So here's my issue... Does anyone else realize that the calendar as it is, is a man made measurement? Not even a very good one. When philosophers looked at time and created the year of our lord they guessed at the date. So 2012? Not really 2012. Could be off by a year or three.
Now I'll admit there has got to be some significants to the date. There is a reason why that year is noted, in culture after culture after culture. I don't know what. Though I highly doubt we're all gonna die on that day.
If we do? Well there's really nothing we can do about it now is there? See all of you on the other side! My outlook on this? That's the year I turn 30. That means I won't have to get any older than 30 if the apocalypse happens on that year. Happy days! To bad it takes an apocalypse to keep from turning 31 but hey...
Anyway, I don't think the world is gonna end. I think it's gonna keep right on turning and in 2013 I will unfortunately turn 31... Lucky me...
I think we are looking at an end of an age though. No age lasts forever and thus far no country or way of life has either. We've gotten better... But hey even Egypt and the Mayans fell. Come on people it can't last forever. I'm kinda looking forward to seeing what's next. I mean come on. I don't know about anyone else but I feel there's still something out there for me to accomplish. Something I have to do yet. I don't think that includes the apocalypse. I mean can anyone else really look at their life and tell me that they feel the end approaching in just 3 short years?
Something is gonna happen. Something is gonna go down. I don't think it's the end.
Though even if it is... So what? It's not like we can stop it. Live it up while ya can people! Peace out!
And don't let Apocalypse week on the history channel freak ya out.
Seriously what's wrong with these people?
Karr: And remember. Karr for president '12
