People on facebook are spreading rumours about the end of the world. It also seems, these rumours are mostly originating from the Unites States. I honestly don’t think the world will end soon. I think this rock is going to be around for another couple of million years. But even if it ended today, it doesn’t matter. There is nothing I can do about it, so worrying about it would be a waste of time, of which, if the world is about to end, I do not have much left. Live every day like it was the last. If I am to die tonight, I want to die happy and without regrets. The past is gone, and will never come back. The future is uncertain, no one knows what lies ahead. Here and now, this is what you have. Enjoy every minute, every second.
These are the words I posted earlier on facebook. I said, I would post some stuff on my blog about this. Well…. I better do it now before it’s too late. Three and a half hours left, right? lol
When I was younger, I was afraid to die. Dying was my worst fear. I was afraid to go to sleep and never wake up again. My worst fear, to die…
This was the way I felt when December 2005 hit me. December 2005… the most depressing time in my life. Suddenly there, just like that. Actually, I am not even sure why I suddenly was depressed. I have mentioned a reason, yes, but I don’t know if that was really the reason. Maybe it was just part of the change, from the old me (pre-summer-2005) and the new me.
But I am getting way off-topic now. I was talking about, me, being afraid to die, right? Ok. Those of you, who were around in those days will remember what happened next. I found a soul, lost like me. That’s how I survived this though period of my life. I had someone to protect, I was needed. Someone needed me, someone who I would protect…. and if I would die, I couldn’t do that anymore.
Those of you who were with me during that time (or bothered to read my ancient blog posts) of course know, this love wouldn’t last forever… I can start writing some things about love here, but I was planning another post for that. The topic of today is the end of the world, or rather, how, in the past, I’ve been afraid to die.
Yet… what does this mean… to me… me back in 2006… At first it’s like… I had saved her… and she me… what would have happened if… history would have taken a different course. Listen, if you’re reading this, I have no hard feelings, I’m glad we’re still friends today, what I am about to say is what I felt back then, not now, ok? I also felt like… she let me down when she didn’t need me anymore… I felt used… And it was then, remeber, 2006, still thinking I was bi, then my next relation should be a guy… and in the months after that, I started to realise that thinking about girls would actually turn me off. I still wonder, am I gay because I made that decision? Ok, I’m going off-topic again…
The point is…. I did make a difference… back then… December 2005… a long time ago…
And later…. beginning 2008 was kinda a disaster… being played with my heart… not an experience I wish to recommend. I had lost my trust…
My life today… well… I love Joshua. I don’t think that’s a secret anymore. I think it was February or March 2010, when we started talking… That one poem, that really touched my heart. Describing exactly how I felt, still a result of 2008, yes… But Josh… I will protect him with my life. Yeah… we’ve helped each other though some hard times. Interesting to see, perhaps, to see, how love started with depression, in both cases?
But my point is… I know now, I have influenced people, helped them, cared for them, saved them… I have made a difference. I know, if I would drop dead right now, I will not be forgotten. I know, even if I would drop dead right now, I would still live on in your memories. I would not die after all. My ideas still live on. So… I don’t have to be afraid to die anymore… but I still have the desire to protect those I love. To share my ideas, my thoughts. To try to make this world a better place. I can’t save the world, but I want those who I call my friends to be happy.
So, less then two and a half our left in this day. I’ve been writing on this for over an hour? Enough of this end-of-the-world-crap. When I wake up tomorrow, I expect the word to be on the other side of my front door. The world is a pretty reliable thing. It’s always on the other side of my front door, and never failed to be there before, so I don’t expect that to change tomorrow.
Maybe people are missing the point to this end of the world nonsense.
Religion to me is nothing more than insane worship of a story book that (some how) gives people faith and belief, and this end of the world nonsense is a Christian cult's belief that tomorrow if Judgement Day.
The reason i say maybe they are missing the point is because not many people know the "reasoning" behind this "theory" and are just throwing misconceptions because they do not understand it.
All in all i do not believe the world will end for many millions of years and people are foolish for trusting in something so idiotic.
Good post though :)
Do not confuse about the situation going on today's world. What Jesus says in the Holy Bible about the End of this World and the Second coming of Christ..You need to Read more References in Holy Bible but one thing is True and that is only the Father(God) knows about the End Time. you need to read Holy Bible: Matthew 24, then you will get perfect idea..
If you want more perfect idea about the End Time of the World then read my Blog..

Sorry, I am not a Christian.
I am not fond of religions, especially Abrahamic religions.
See http://andrevs.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html for my views on them.
But the Bible, has been translated many times, and altered through time.
In the early days of Christianity, it was an illegal religion in the Roman Empire. But despite it was being repressed, no, due it was being repressed, it became successful.
When Christianity was made into the state religion. During these days there were various variants, and being turned into the empire's state religion, one 'official' version as created, and Jesus being God's son was being voted upon. This variant would serve the empire better.
Considering this, even the Latin version of the Bible wasn't the original version.
Translating between languages is a lot tougher then speaking a language. When considering ancient languages, it gets even tougher. Words are connected to concepts and ideas. Concepts that might have been forgotten over time…
I'm sure the world will not fall apart, but I think some big changes are coming soon. What I do know is that the magnetic field of the earth is getting weaker rapidly for nearly 20 years. We can actually notice this, because the weakening magnetism has negative effects on our blood.
The blood will clump together and therefore it can transport less oxygen. Only the red blood-cells at the outside of the clumps can receive and give oxygen. The red blood-cells deep inside the clumps cannot be used for transportation, because they simply does not touch the lungs or the other parts of the body. As a result the people nowadays are more often tired than they were before.
Because the magnetic field gets weaker rapidly, it's possible that soon the whole earth will flip. It's possible that, after this flip, the sun doesn't rise in the east and sets in the west anymore, but rises in the south and sets in the north. Also certain currents in the ocean (like the Gulf Stream) can change, having big consequences for the animals and the climate.
It's known that on Antarctica, underneath the ice, palm-trees have been found. Maybe, in the days these palm-trees grew, the sun actually did rise in the south and did set in the north. And that they froze to death because the path of the sun has been changed due to an earlier flip, covering Antarctica in darkness for a long time.
The date that's called dooms-day (December 21, 2012) is the end of a big cycle of the Mayan calendar. Remember that the Mayan calendar is based on natural events. This means that, on December 21, 2012, the earth can indeed flip.
I don't know if such a flip really comes, but I do think something will happen at the given date.
Well… that might explain why I have been feeling so tired for the past years… I've been complaining about this, haven't I? I don't have as much energy as I used to…
Even though, for many years, strong magnets have been sold, claiming they promote the blood circulation.
The claims that magnetism would promote the blood circulation would also suggest that less magnetism would demote it, and thus, supporting your claims.
However hemoglobin is actually diamagnetic, which means it's repulsed by magnetism.
People are saying a lot about the mayan calendar. Some say the end is 15 oktober 4772. It says 21 december 2012 is 4 Ahau 3 Kankin, and not 4 Ahau 8 Cumku, which means it's not a re-creation date.
Mind you I am just quoting some sites on the subject.
Something will happen on the given date? Hoe accurate is the conversion between calendar systems. It's said the long count was no longer in use during the first contact with their civilisation. Perhaps that will be a self forfilling prophecy? Who knows?
What I do know is the world *needs* to change. Badly!
by the way: have you watched movies/documentaries I suggested?
