What is going on with this December 21st, 2012 End of the world thing? It is soo scary in a way! its a scary thought to think that in about a year, my life will end as I know it-but then again-Im not so sure I believe this theory. I think back to 2000, when I was only in 4th grade. I think of a Girl names Veronica in my class saying that Y2K was here! And that something bad was going to happen to the world. It scared me! But after it was all over, I was still here! And I felt better. Im sure alot of people did! But this-This is different to me. On December 21st,2012, The Mayan Calander marks the end of a 5,126 year era.((USA TODAY)) Theres talk of winter solstice, the Earths collision with another planet, or even the End of The World as we know it! But others believe, that the Earth and everyone in it, will undergo a positive physical or spiritual transformation((Wikipedia))
I, for sure am hoping that its the 2nd op tion!! Im not sure what exactly to think about this phenomenon. NASA states that "Nothing bad will happen to the Earth in 2012. Our planet has been getting along just fine for more than 4 billion years, and credible scientists worldwide know of no threat associated with 2012." (http://www.nasa.gov/topics/earth/features/2012.html) But other sources say that A comit will hit the Earth as it did when Dinosaurs went extinct.
Truth is-Im terrifeid of Death. I know I will be in a better place, but the thought of not being here ALIVE on Earth, is scary. I fear a painful death. I want to die in my sleep-without knowledge of it. The thought of sudden death also makes me shake in my boots. I konw it will happen, and that its inevitable-but I pray its in my sleep! I dont want to feel anything. Some nights I lay in bed with thoughts racing through my head about Death. Some nights I fear to sleep. Ive thought about talking about it-but it just seems like its something I have to overcome myself. Maybe I wont overcome this, and maybe I will. Who knows!
Lets just hope 2012 dont happen, because Im not ready for my life to end. Its been too short.
