not the end, a time for change - a beginning

 "On 21 December, a day very important to the Maya. In a recent speech to the UN, Evo Morales, president of Bolivia, said that according to their tradition, this date marks the end of the non-ti...me and the beginning of time, is the end of Macha and the beginning of the Pacha - Mother Nature-the beginning of life in accord with Natural Law. It's the end of selfishness and the beginning of brotherhood. It's the end of individualism and the beginning of the collectivism. It's the end of hatred and the beginning of love. The end of the beginning of the lies and truth. It's the end of the sadness and the beginning of joy. It's the end of the division and the beginning of the unit."

I love how you can turn something upside by simply changing the perspective. The prediction of the worlds end according to the Mayan calendar is all over the news and top of mind. I think its great - some fuel for more action in the right direction. The global unity and awareness is slowly picking up momentum. And it does not mean it will not get worse before it gets better. But it means the wheels are in motion, the more energy that more humans put in the right direction will help strengthen the centrifugal force towards a better world, one people, the fresh start that will happen post-Mayan calendar.
