Am tired. Wherever I go I hear people talking about just one thing, "2012". Not just the movie...people are talking about the year 2012. Just the other day a friend of mine expressed her concern for the future of our world and it goes without saying that she'd gone to see the movie (and had entered the theatre 1 hour late!!).
well, just for the record, I've been getting offers to watch 2012 myself but due to acute shortage of funds (my ATM is blocked...no idea why or how!!) i have not been able to watch it yet.
Anyway, this entire concept of world destruction is well...i think, totally bogus! And trust me i'm saying this after researching this topic on the net. I've checked wiki and NASA reports and they all say the same thing: the world is not going to end in 2012. its a baseless rumour! the reasons cited by various sites are pretty weird. For example some mathematicians have calculated and predicted earth's destruction in 2012, or that the Bible and other religious books say so. The weirdest and most misinterpreted reason is the Mayan Calender. It is supposed to have predicted this destruction eras ago! This sort of mass misinterpretation of information is creating a panic among the masses. Is this necessary?
A friend's kid sister came up with an unique solution...according to her we should experience whatever we want to in these few years...kya pata 2013 ho na hoo!!
You are absolutely right sis. Though the movie is awesome, specially the special effects, it is creating a panic among all the people. I don't know whether world is going to end within 2012 or not, because I believe nobody absolutely nobody can predict the future. There had been lots of movies like "The Day after tomorrow" where world's end was shown, but somehow 2012 is much more theatrical,more horrifying and also getting publicity specially for Mayan calendar.
ReplyDeleteAs I have an unusual habit of finding positivity in everything, I found this movie as an eye-opener for all of us.
First of all we should take care of our environments to prevent atleast delay this kind of natural calamity.
Secondly, 2012 made me think, what if world really going to end in 2012, even if it is not, I am going to end say 70 years after,it helped me to be connected with my mortality. It made me decide WHAT IS REALLY IMPORTANT FOR ME, WHAT DO I REALLY WANT OUT OF MY LIFE? So that I can give my top priorities to these things and stop wasting time on things which is not important to me. It made me realise the importance of every moments to live our best life.
Thirdly it also made me realise, how insignificant is the difference among us, how foolish is to fight with someone due to difference in race, colour, religion or power.Because if world is going to end, we have to face together.
