Today is the end, the very final day of the world....Or at least that' is what the Mayans believed. I am still unconvinced but I suppose the possibility is always there. We shall see what happens tonight. My money is on the fact that I will still have to wake up in the morning and go to work.

It is not so hard to find all of the faults that we have developed as a species. The amount of unnecessary death and suffering in this world that could be prevented is ridiculous.
