The End

The world didn’t come to an end again the other day, I should keep track of how many times there’s been an unforeseen delay. The guy who said that it would end seemed so sincere, And even if I didn’t follow his logic to him it seemed so clear. And the people who follow him closely sold off all their stuff, I guess that heir faith in him must not have been enough. As for me it really threw off my plans for that coming week, I hadn’t bothered to make any plans because it seemed rather bleak. How could I possibly plan ahead if I didn’t know if I’d made the cut? What if I’d been left behind and Heaven’s doors had all been shut? I hear that there’s a chance that it will end again next year, We’ll have to see if it comes true but that’s the story I hear.

LOL You really do have a sharp sense of wit, Tony. We've heard so many doomsday predictions that never come to fruition. Now I'm waiting to see what happens on 12/21/12. Great write! Love, Carolyn
