"Many believe when the Mayan Calendar ends in December 21, 2012, the world as we know it will end with it."
Okay, so is the world going to end in 2012 as predicted in the Mayan calendar? I have my doubts about it and I don't feel it necessary to dissuade others from believing in it. There are belief systems all around the world that I don't necessarily agree with. This is one of them and it reminds me of the concerns of life as we know it ending in the year 2000.
The world didn't end then and I personally doubt that it will end in 2012. There will be those that take advantage of the 'impending doom' and develop plans to earn money from it. There will be plenty of people that feel I am taking this too lightly. My preparation will be for the possible ramifications that unwarranted hysteria could cause.
But what if I'm wrong they will say? If I'm wrong it won't make any difference from all that is supposed to happen. You can scare or amuse yourself at 2012 Doomsday Predictions. But if it does come to pass, it is out of our control anyway. There is nothing you could do to prepare for it. So the focus of all your energy on worrying will do you no good.
Take that focus and turn it towards doing something good in your life today. Focus on what you can do to better your life and the lives of those around you. To stop and worry now, when the 'doom and gloom' fails to happen, you will be left in the same place you are now.
In other words, keep moving forward in a positive light. Go forward, be prepared for changes in life but keep moving. The year 2012 will come and go; will you?

this is an awesome post. There is a lot of speculation about what is going to happen. However I feel that you are right. All we can do is live the best we can day by day. One of the books I read about 2012 shed a more positive light on the situation, "the 100th human" teaches some valuable lessons about living. Where will we be if the world does end? I want to be happy.
