I was wondering if I
was writing this blog two years ago and called it “2010” If I would have been
in trouble?
Let me explain.
Two years ago my
country, South Africa hosted the soccer world cup and “2010” became a
trademark.
They went crazy with
the trademark thingy and I think even calendar printers picked up problems.
It made for lengthy
printing.
Because in order to
legally print the year we were in, people had to do things like:
·
In this
year, 10 years after 2000.
·
This 2000
and decade year.
Anyway, to get back to
2012. I am totally and completely bummed
about 2012.
Why?
I had visions of the
21st December 2012 coming and “Poof” gone is the world.
I even had a plan.
1.
I was
going to go through our house and see if we sold everything how much we could
get.2.
I was
going to calculate the amount of months that we could comfortably live once we
had sold everything (ok it would probably only be a month or two so THE PLAN
would have had to wait till about October/November.)3.
I was
obviously going to stop paying accounts (we were all going to die anyway).4.
When all
is sold and we are ready we will pack up what we have and take off to the coast
and we will spend our last days swimming in the ocean, walking on beaches,
drinking in pubs and dancing enjoying life to the maximum before the world
ends.
So my plan was rather
simple.
But now so many
experts are saying that there is no guarantee that the world is going to end,
and that is why I am bummed. The world
could end tomorrow or it could end in a million years.
I don’t agree with the
statement live your life as if the world is going to end tomorrow.
I don’t hate my life
but if I only had a few hours I would do things that I cannot possibly do every
day.
