Are We Living In THE New Age Yet?

WHEN ASKED for a succinct definition of history, a renowned historian replied "one damned thing after another". And right he was. Dude got right to the point, didn't he?

We made it past december 21, 2012 apocalypse day, the day the mayan calendar and the world ended. Earth crosses the galactic equator once every twenty six thousand years, including most recently last friday. The mayans, fifteen hundred years ago, knew this was going to happen, and so they stopped their calendar, rather than continue it for another twenty six thousand years.

All this hoopla about 12/21/12 we have endured/encouraged over the past few years was entirely a modern phenomenon' the mayans said nothing about what would happen last firday, other than the end of a long count.

Blame the media, blame the new agers; blame us all, it was a lot of fun, rather remindful of 1/1/00/, 11/11/11, and all the rest. Having fun with numbers.  and why not?

But we still need to hear something from the new age people, the true believers, those who insisted all along that after the solstice, everything would be different. Yet in all the pre solstice excitement, not many specifics have come forth concerning exactly how the world will soon be different.

During the past several months what i remember hearing mostly is that the world will be a better place in general, with sweeping economic reforms and direct extraterrestrial participation in human affairs combining to make for a wonderful future for all.

Well, bring it on! It is probably safe to assume that most of us humans would love nothing more than to live the remainder of our lives far different and better than the current one. What's a little extraterrestrail involvment among friends? Sw'll get used to it, and, probably end up liking it, wondering how we ever managed to get by before our friends from the stars arrived.

Within days, as you know if you haven't been living on mars, the united states must either go off the fiscal cliff, or back away from it. Who knows? Maybe this budgetary turmoil is part of the overall plan to bring about drastic reform to the world's economy. Let's hope so.
