the year is here.
we have been warned, for years and years on and on.
one of our friends said the apocalypse would take place in February 2008.
guess what, we are still here.
well, i never believed in any sort of war/zombie-type apocalypse.
but the more i experience in politics, in human behaviour, in natural studies, the more i am inclined to believe in at least a slight hiccup - when there would be no more electricity, supermarkets, central water and sewer system, no more public transport or media of any kind.
-
there are less and less jobs.
people are forced to eat junk. do useless jobs.
this just can not go on.
-
we have to hold on to what we actually have.
each other.
we need to slow down and reevaluate things, relationships. the weight and true importance of these things in our lives.
-
like i plan to print all my writings. to have them on paper.
i might as well use them to start a fire to prevent us from freezing.
i might as well read them to my grandchildren.
just in case.
i do not want to leave the world without leaving any marks.
i want my thoughts on paper.
-
these are the thoughts my mind is occupied with these days.
your thoughts are welcomed.

Given enough time, everything whithers and dies, all we can do is make effective use of the time and the possibilities we have at our disposal at any given time.
I'd agree with you in some ways, that our society will look totally different if some of the base conditions are altered or missing for some reason. I'm not really worried to be honest, I'll just go with the flow and pick up the opportunities as they arise and let go when circumstances dictate.
In the end, we have absolutely no certainties. Perhaps the internet will fail, or be taken away by governments more interested in power than people, paper perishes in flames and with time, even oral traditions can be lost or mutilated.
Good to see that you're writing and reflecting well, beats Facebook any day. ;-)
haha, i take your last sentence as a compliment :)
as for the rest of your comment:
i expect more definite changes.
but as you said, one can not be exactly sure about the extent of changes.
but it's everything gone terribly bad if oral traditions are lost or mutilated. i can not even dare to think about such circumstances.
:S
