I am not concerned at all.
Live each day to the fullest. Don't worry about what tomorrow might bring. If you have faith, trust in God. I do!

I love this saying and firmly believe it:
"Worrying is like being in a rocking chair. It gives you something to do but gets you nowhere" :D

If the world came to an end today I know I would be together with all my loved ones .
God is in control, not us. Why worry about it? People worried about the year 2000 and not a thing happened except the date changed!!

What concerns me is what a fear-based society we seem to be :(

Hellllllllo! STOP Watching those shows that are upsetting you!

I don't watch horror movies or programs with lots of death and violence and demeaning things. They make me uncomfortable ... so I don't watch.

If it happens there won't be a darn thing you or anyone else can do to stop it. If it does then I pray that the Good Lord comes and takes his ppl away first. But when you think back in history there have been many predictions that the world was gonna end. Remember Y2K? Boy they pumped that one up and ppl paniced(sp?) bought the grocery stores out, bought generators, stocked up on all the supplies they could find like candles, flash lights, toilet paper the list goes on and on. And what happened NOTHING!!!!!!! I have gotten to the point that when the media hypes something up like that I just throw my hands in the air and shake my head.

I am REALLY not concerned over the predictions of an extict people. If they were so smart, where are they now? They could predict the "end of the world" but then disappeared off the face of the Earth? Nothing has been found to show that they were attacked, died of a plague, or just moved on.
