DOOMS DAY!

i was just wondering what value we have of our own life? many people fear death. still many embrace it. what is it that we fear the most? the loss of our loved ones or the loss of our own life? there is this calendar called the "Maya calendar". apparently, there are five predictions been made through it. four of which have come true. the fifth prediction states that "Dooms day" falls on Decemeber 21st, 2012. the meaning of this would be that the world will come to an end on this fated day. something like what happened to the dinosours millions of years ago will now happen to human beings. does that mean anything to anybody? most of the world is dismissing it. ignoring it. living with it.
i don't think i see anyone making any changes in his/her life to accomodate this fact. i am not saying "save the world" or "stop global warming". i am one of those people who lives with such facts. i am not, for one second, going to believe that there is something that can change this happening. it is going to happen if it is going to happen. i am just wondering whether or not the situation should be like in the movies. something like what happened in movies like, "The day after tomorrow", "Invasion", and other such. i mean, the entire world came together and people were telling people they loved just how much they loved them. should that not be happening? even if the world is not really coming to an end. just the thought of this should elicit SOME reaction. any reaction. a reaction. i don't know. maybe i am being stupid. (as usual, some would say). this probably means nothing, but, somehow, i can't help but wonder. :-)
