thoughts going through my head

[zestfive]

Global warming? Armageddon? Apocalypse? Is the world coming to an end? I'm kinda sensitive soul and I've never cared to read books about the world coming to an end. The predictions of various religious people or psychics, Nostradamus have always been things that I don't want to know. Logically, I don't think any of that is true, when I think in fear, it scares me.

Granted, I've only really been in this world for a few short years, but this year seemed especially crazy. Think of the HUGE disasters that recently occured that were supposedly one every like bazillion years. It just doesn't seem normal. I can't imagine what some of these people are going through. I feel really at a loss on it all.

Tsunami
Hurricane Rita and Katrina
Earthquake in Pakistan (and etc)
Guatamala's mud slides

Is this just coincidence? Is this global warming? Is the world coming to an end (hope not, there's still so much to do!)

Anyone have any thoughts on this?

i was thinking the other day that it must be a great time to belong to an "end of days" cult, because they've gotten a lot of "evidence" lately...

Yeah, totally, but I'm not about to give up my life's savings to some crazy people ! I'll keep holding my breath and hope things settle down after a while...or is it that I've got to have something to worry about?

I just think all these disasters is the world's way of telling us humans to stop being so violent and nasty toward eachother. I don't believe in any kind of apocalypse; I think that's ridiculous, personally.

It's not global warming in particular; global warming is a seperate thing that is going on, and maybe it does help cause worse hurricanes and floods, but global warming has no effect on the shifting of the tectonic plates.

Anyway. If the world ever does come to an abrupt end, it'll be because of humans and something we physically do (like, nuke eachother to death or destroy the ozone layer).

Aahh..you're such the pragmatist! Such a level head, thanks for your comment!

I guess global climate change will end up in warmer warm pockets and colder cold pockets. But that has little to do with earthquakes ... or so we think. hhhmmmm.

Yeah, who knows....if you catch me being nervous and anxious, I can worry about all sorts of weird things...but you really wouldn't see it. I do much more internally than externally! I also suffer from mass guilt from how white people/"americans" have treated slaves, native americans and (was it the Japanese - or really probably almost any asian person during WW II?) Among others...
