The beginning of the end of the beginning of the end

In my lifetime I have survived, the cold war, Y2K, the Nostradamus Quatrains, numerous wars and now the Mayan apocalypse. I think it's safe to see we are all here and the universe continues on. We must have some gene that programs us to wish or hope or want the end of us all to come. Not me though. I want to see humanity continue to progress and possibly change to beings of thought and intellect. A Star Trek type world where we seek to better ourselves through positive endeavours for humanity than selfish gain. No hunger, no poverty, and disease has been virtually eliminated. There is only one thing that is prevented that from happening, humans. We are still as much animal in our fallen state, than a being created to converse with God. No one ever will be able to erase the anger and the greed that swim inside one veins. So I predict that we will constantly or until the second coming, will fight, kill, steal, lie, and cheat from each other.

So thousands maybe millions worldwide waited and even prayed for the end to come. What do they feel like now that the sun is shinning and everyday life never stopped? Could people actually feel a sense of disappointment that they are alive? I have only heard of that phenomenon in much older adults. Many years ago my great grandmother in her late nineties broke her hip. The family decided to get her a helper and a special bed so she could stay home and be less active. The family legend is that she told everyone, " No I am done, I will just go home and pass on". Sure enough the next day she was gone, of her own will. Could there be a point in our lives that we just live too long? Could the vampire legends be a warning of what immortality without purity could be like? Can life really tire us out to the point we pray for death?

Even as a lousy Christian I believe in the scripture that says, no one knows the day or the hour only the father. If you know anything about the Christian belief of the end times they are not not even the end of the world. The world survives repaired after some serious calamities and then a thousand year peaceful reign of the messiah. There is no end of the world as much an extreme makeover Earth addition. When it happens it happens I say. Live your life to the fullest. Achieve, invent, love, laugh oh laugh alot. Being human right now is all we have.
