You've never been promised more than the solitary moment in which you're already living. Relax and try to be happy.

Ok, wow. Don't. Actually, I was as crazy as you when I started to seriously consider 2012 as a significant date. Don't worry about it. The trick is to trust how tue universe is made. Obviously, the universe isn't stupid, nothing happens for nothing. Do you think the universe would harvest such complex forms of life only to destroy it with no purpose? The thing is to be able to see the bigger picture. TPTB aren't making so much chaos only for their pleasure. Learn the real prediction behind 2012, the original one. It is predicted that we will evolve to a higher dimension. Learn about "ascension" / "Harvest", Calleman...

Let me say that the fear-mongering is spreaded by MSM, in order to win the game. The more. Fearful you are, smaller are your chances to be harvestable. Seriously look into this thing. It's hesvily backed by science and metaphysics. See 2012 as an awakening of the human species. If you have more questions, pm me, I might have my computer, because typing with my ipod now is so long!

Don't fear, trust the universe, and most importantly, death is not sometjibg to fear about.

(Hint: look at the Law Of One)

Only people who are addicted to the physical world will live in fear. People who let go of materialism have no fear. You should never fear what you have no control over as it will control you and that is a pointless pursuit.

Live in the present moment and you will not fear the future.

I have lived my entire life (47) believing that the end was near because of the religion I was raised in. It used to stress me out and it prevented me from doing some things that I may have otherwise done. But it also caused me to face my fears and question my beliefs with a totally open mind. If you look back over the history of this world you will see that there have been many many many terrible times. And now a lot of people believe that something even worse is about to happen. This world is looooong over due for something very good to happen and I believe that is what will happen. We all need to start believing and asking for something good to happen.

You may not believe in God but I think you will find comfort in the Lord's prayer especially if you see it the way I do now. "Our Father which art in heaven hallowed be thy name, Thy kingdom come thy will be done on Earth as it is in Heaven, Give us this day our daily bread and forgive us our debts as we forgive our debtors and lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil for thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. This world has waited for good to reign here forever, we all want a world where justice and equality and freedom prevail a world full of peace and tranquility. This is in essence what the Lord's prayer offers. I desire our Father's kingdom to be established here, I do pray that we will all be sustained by Him and that He will not allow us to be lead into the temptation or trial of another horrible event and that He will deliver us from such an evil. We all need to ask and believe that we will receive all of the good that we all desire and deserve. This world and its inhabitants have paid their dues.... it's time for us to recieve the rewards.

You've got a good 10-20 years before total social breakdown, caused not just by a drastically altered climate, ergo living conditions, but from the plethora of social issues, a failing economy and food supply being but two that are seriously considered to impact globally within such a timescale.

"The World as you know it is about to end."

Think of that like when Hunter-Gatherers started taking up agriculture in our distant past - their world, as they once knew it of constant travelling and hunting, ended forever with the introduction of farming. It took hundreds if not thousands of years for the full transformation to take place.

If there's a near-future mass migration due to climate or major earth event, that alone would mean a total change to our very way of life, globally, forever.
Our world will never be the same....but to be honest, is it the same as it was 10 years ago? 20?

It's not always a major extinction event that can end 'great' civilisations.

Think of it this way:

There are three possible outcomes. Something good can happen, nothing can happen, or something bad can happen. That's at least a 2/3 chance of being no worse off in 2012 as you were in 2011, and 1/3 chance of being better off.

If you look at what the Mayans actually say (past and present Mayans), the odds are much better than 2/3 that either something positive or something neutral will happen when the Mayan calendar rolls over.

OP, think about this, and I am sure it will ease your mind. Has anyone here ever predicted an event that came true? No



Nothing will happen, nothing is gonna happen, nothing ever happens.


You can stop pooping yourself now.

When you see the shuttle being forced down by a meteor shower, run..

I'll share my view on the "end of the world". I did it with several people and some of them felt relieved by it.

Just imagine history like going to a movie.
You enter the cinema and the movie had already started. It started so much time ago that nobody inside the theater has seen the beginning. So nobody has a real clue of the whole story.
You see a really short part of the movie, then you have to leave. Maybe something big happens onscreen, but you won't see the ending.
So: you missed the beginning, you'll miss the ending and you won't grasp the whole plot at all.

What if the world ends?

We are all going to see how this movie ends.

The only alternative we have is leaving before the end.

Personally, I prefer to see the end.
I fear death, of course. I don't even believe in god, reincarnation or afterlife.
But it doesn't matter, because, still, I have no choice. And, again, between living and dying as any other people has done over the millennia and withnessing the end of time, I chose the latter!

What's with this freaking date?!?
I am freaking about here a bit.
Fear. It comes from what's the unknown.

Does anybody know anything for sure about this date?
Is there anything that can comfort me?

I walk around with "2012" in the back of my mind. I've got less that a couple years to live.
All the experiences I never got to have...ect...

I don't know if I am going to cry or be sick.

This is getting to be a bit much. I have this feeling that won't leave...my instincts tell me something's going to happen...and it may be negative. Another part of me tries to be hopeful and think it's a bunch of bull.

I didn't realize how anxious I was until tonight.

Crud!

For some reason, you are focusing on the doomsday scenario. If you are not aware, there is another scenario on 2012 and that is the return of earth to its Golden Age. Research on this topic if you are not aware of this.

Also, analyze yourself and know why you have that fear. You are afraid exactly of what?
