A recent Hollwood film starring John Cusack sees this year as the end of the world, a solar flare igniting a chain reaction from our planets core and causing devastation and apocalypse across the globe! Interesting then that in recent days we have experienced one of the largest solar flares for several years, coincidence? I think so!
The interesting thing about the media and global predictions is their ability to read far too deep into these stories and blow everything dramatically out of proportion! Finding tenuous links and scraps of information and somehow formulating a story that bases itself on neither fact nor truth.
Those of us that have taken the time to read carefully into such things learn to quickly dismiss the larger populous of rhetoric issued by the media masses, the hype and pop-culture is all too consuming and filled with scaremongering! Instead, I would rather take myself to the library, take a variety of reference books and allow my own wanderings within those pages, following tangents and avenues, flicking and thumbing through a variety of educational documents, escaping the over pumped and over glorified tabloid sensationalism of modern day reporting.
Another example of this media meddling and manipulation is painfully obvious with the situation in the Middle East. Wars being waged and lives being lost, apparently all in the name of peace! But what peace can be found when the piles of bodies continue to grow, when towns and villages and destroyed and the only people that seem to think this is right are the ones that do not even live there! That is not to say that I disagree with some of the missions the UK and the UN have been involved in. When stopping tyranny or acting for the good of humanity by saving lives then this is all commendable work, necessary and hopefully prosperous.
But recently it all seems to have become a bit tense and very dangerous.
A friend of mine and I have spoken on a number of occasions about our opinions on the war in the Middle East. He watches Russian and Chinese television amongst other things and sees our western powers acting as the aggressors! I watch the western news where we portray the actions of those against us as wrong and as acts of aggression.
So who is right? Neither, either or none! The simple fact is, behind all the conspiracies, behind all the wars and the life lost, it bears down to power and for now that power is found beneath the ground in pockets of liquid we have all come to know as oil.
Human existence and social evolution, especially in the last couple of hundred years has been built upwards from the discovery of oil and its combustible uses. With exception of those tribes buried deep in the rainforests or deserts of the world, most of the modern world, from Alaska to New Zealand, from Siberia to South Africa, every country, every company, everyone depends on this oily liquid. New technologies have been created to combat our dependency on oil but alas at the moment none of them are stable or powerful enough to completely over-right our need for oil. We've built countries and civilisations since this discovery and without oil, the world would not be what it is today.
So whether the governments wish to tell us or not, whether I am wrong or right, there is too much at stake for any one person to ever be able to know, but maybe groups of them do. You hear of groups like the Illuminati or the goings on of Bohemian Grove and more prominent in the UK, the Masons. Societies of secrets but not secret societies. But they all hold weight, bending and fashioning the world around us to keep 'us' safe! And these are just the groups we have heard of, who knows what dark underworld groups these governments run, or even the people of the world, for all I know, there maybe a society deeper and darker than any government run agency or group.
But with all this deception, the lies and misguiding information that comes from our media, and they who are in turn dictated too by these groups of individuals, is it any surprise that we, the common man or woman, have little to no idea of what actually is going on? Some of us have luck on our side that we live in these bigger super powers, miles away from the front lines, but those poor civilians on the front line have no where to run, and all the while these wars rage on.
The decimation of the world is a foot!
So to return to my original point about the end of the world and the whole 2012 thing, I do not believe that the Mayans predication that Quetzalcoatl is going to return, least not in the Hollywood sense, is going to happen. But my understanding is that Quetzalcoatl is the darkness and the end of one era and the start of another, time to clear out all the rubbish and prepare to begin again fresh and ready.
So maybe it is not some ethereal manifestation, but our own creation, it is an apocalypse we bring upon ourselves, the end of this war torn and human infested era, the destruction of the modern world and a return to the fresh and ready!
But then again, who am I to know or even speculate over such matters, only time will tell!
