If people are right about the Mayan calendar ending in 2012 corresponding with the end of the world, what would you do?
Would you become a survivalist, stocking up on food supplies in some underground bunker?
Would you spend all your savings and see distant places you have always dreamed of going?
Would you stay put and spend the remaining time with your family and friends?
I’d like to think that I would take the time to really look around at the world I had created. I'd let old worries fade like puffs of smoke. Forgive people I had been too stubborn to forgive in the past. Say goodbye to my close circle of loved ones. Leave all my unpaid bills unopened and burn my gym membership. I'd sit for a while in silence of my home, sipping a cold beer and thinking. Why did I choose to read these books? Why didn’t I travel more? Why didn’t I volunteer more?
Yes, I would like to think I would do all those things.
Or maybe I would panic. Actually that underground bunker is starting to sound good.
