Very Little Time Left...

Dec 01, 2006 01:35

The world crumbles slowly at first, but as there is less and less to hang on to, it gets faster and faster.
Time is running out. The East is becoming self-aware, and the West is trying desperately to stop it. It's a choice between ultra-tight religion and ultra-corrupt government. Is what we have worth preserving? Is what they have worth turning into?
Either way, when the cultures finally clash, there will only be death and destruction.
One side prays and arms for war.
The other tries to get rich as quick as possible, before it all collapses.

Do we allow religion or money to dictate our lives?
Is it almost time for our lives to be radically uprooted? And who will do it? The governments? The religions? The people themselves?

I wish I lived in another time, but I guess, so does everyone who lives in a bad time. And I can't actually find a point in history where it ever was a "good" time. Lately though, I've been wondering- should I shut the world out like everyone else does and enjoy what's left? Or should I keep thrusting myself into knowledge and feeding the cynic in me?
I'm starting to despise to the point of WANTING that collapse. Wanting that nuclear wasteland that says "We don't deserve this". It's extreme... because the world's extreme now. Everything is right, wrong, and nothing at the same time. Life is a contradiction. Death is still a mystery. Perhaps the only mystery. But one that looks like we might all get to explore really soon, and it's sad.

I want to move to Europe.
