21st December - Is it the end ? - If so what would you do ?



The world has only two more days if the Mayan Calender prediction is going to be true. I just had a casual chat with my friends and just out of curiosity I asked them what would they like to do if they are sure that they have only 2 more days. There were a lot of answers ranging from a trip to the USA to an affair with the girl friend..!

Most of them(including me) were determined to do what ever it takes to fulfill their life's last desires if they are sure that the world will end. But, most of their wishes seemed very simple, that they could have fulfilled in their years of life so far, rather than trying to fulfill all their simple wishes in the last 2 days. Everyone of them could have lead years of fulfilled happy life which they want to have for just 2 days now.

I wondered, what made them to try to fulfill desires now?
I wondered, what made them to try to achieve whatever they wanted, in two days without even thinking if it is possible..?
A simple, one word answer to these questions would be 'Time'.

When we realize that time is running out and we don't have much time, we give our everything to accomplish our desires. Otherwise, for most of us, life is a routine process with some occasional surprises. Is that life all about?

I feel life is not just that. We always had time to make friendship. We always had time for a hangout and of-course we always had time to love, to make a girl friend. But why couldn't we make the best of every day even when there's nothing called a doomsday and we have a lot of time(I'm damn sure world is not going to end day after tomorrow). The problem is we think we have a lot of time and  compromise ourselves on many things.

There might not be any truth in the Mayans prediction but I feel, if there's something we wish to do, we should go ahead and do it anyway. Or one day we may regret for missing many things in life.

Life is too short to worry about anything. You had better enjoy it because the next day promises nothing.            -Eric Davis

Even if the world doesn't end, another year from our life has gone. I wish next year doesn't end in the same way as this year with  a list of things that we haven't done. Instead let it be one in which we have given our best to the things that matter, a year where we have tried to be the happiest we can be.

Do not compromise on your happiness. It's your life and it is in your hands to fulfill your wishes and dreams.
Happy living..!
