And I feel fine. If you are reading this, then that means the world in fact did not end as the Mayans "predicted." I put that in quotes simply because I don't think that the Mayans actually predicted that today would be the end of the world. Take the Mayan calender as a clue to that. Have you ever actually seen that (http://www.google.com/imgres?um=1&hl=en&sa=N&tbo=d&rlz=1C1SKPM_enUS451US451&biw=1366&bih=667&tbm=isch&tbnid=ipidwUXWKIV7CM:&imgrefurl=http://bostinno.com/2012/12/11/mayan-calendar-end-of-the-world-december-21-2012/&docid=2cP-SecEHuHfbM&imgurl=http://cloudfront2.bostinno.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/Mayan-Calendar.jpeg&w=1024&h=768&ei=bmjUUNPjO5O68wTf8YDYDA&zoom=1&iact=hc&vpx=140&vpy=362&dur=11&hovh=194&hovw=259&tx=153&ty=96&sig=100469568682862204057&page=1&tbnh=146&tbnw=199&start=0&ndsp=20&ved=1t:429,r:1,s:0,i:160). I think the reason the calender itself ended is that it ran out of room for more. In addition to that, the Mayans did not account for leap years, so according to the Mayans, the world should have ended a couple of months ago. In Matthew 24: 36, Jesus clearly says, "But concerning that day and hour no one knows, not even angels or heaven, nor the Son, but the Father only. Matthew 24:36 ESV." I think that pretty much sums up what I think about all these people predicting the end of the world. Jesus clearly said that "no one knows." Because of this, I believe that we as humans should stop trying to guess when the world is going to end and live our lives to the fullest because we are not guaranteed tomorrow. I don't mean that as to go do a bunch of stupid stuff because you only live once. I mean that you should live each day to the fullest.
