The Mayan calendar ends December 23, 2012, alarmist are concerned Armageddon is just around the corner, and I have a sliver in the bottom of my big toe. Are we really in the midst of the decline of the human race, the end of life as we know it, the total destruction of planet Earth, and all living creatures who call her home? Or, are we simply enamored with exploring the alphabet?
I started noticing this interesting fixation with the alphabet in 2006, the year "An Inconvenient Truth" premiered, and in again 2007 when Al Gore received the Nobel Peace Prize. It was then I began to hear efficient, effulgent, and effusive ecologist effectively and eloquently edify humanity as to how we are so egregiously effecting our environment enmasse, to the point that we are efficaciously contributing to the complete annihilation, (opps that's an 'a' word), of the Garden of Eden. In essence committing ecocide. Our society has explored and exploited the subject and industries association with the 'e'nvironment words.
Having a penchant for the letter 'e' and 'e' words, we then moved on to the economic downturn. The likes of which we haven't experienced since, "The Great Depression", of the nineteen thirties. We are threatened with the elimination or at least the ebb of past, current and/or future earnings of the global ALL. We are behind the eight ball, as earnest economist urge us to economize.
We have exhausted, are no longer sensitized, and possibly just simply fed up with the letter 'e', and so, we move on to the letter "p", as in pandemic. Physicians are sounding the alarm. "People Pandora's Box has been opened! Immanent potential pain is present. Don't be panic stricken, just wash your hands, pooh pooh public places, and put a panoply on your face."
Possibly, it's not about the alphabet after all, maybe it has something to do with human insecurities running amuke, and we simply have a need to create and live in crisis. The pendulum is always swinging when it comes to the planet's environment, the economy, and cyclical diseases.
Bottom Line - use common sense; don't foul the nest, don't spend money you don't have, and for all of our sakes it you're not feeling well, stay home, take care of yourself, and we'll all be happy to see you again when you're feeling better.
Relax, enjoy, do your work, and have some fun as you consciously manage your physical, emotional, and intellectual self. And finally, for goodness sake have some confidence in yourself, as you allow life to unfold as it will.
