We have been away from our site for a while however we are back with a vengeance!
We have less the 718 days left on Earth, according to the doom Sayers! I want to believe that 2012 myths are just that. However with recent events it is hard to say that it is a myth.
Biblical floods in Australia.
Birds dropping out of the sky dead.
Fish dead on the banks.
Earthquakes abound.
Unprecedented Winter weather.
I want to believe we have a future!
Help me disprove them.
I have been searching the web and found 2 disturbing articles on MSNBC.
They discuss how 2010 was the worst year yet for natural disasters. Everything from Earthquakes to floods to blizzards.
“2010′s biggest natural disasters
The natural forces of the planet were in full swing this year, with some spectacular and devastating consequences. From the massive Haiti earthquake to a bevy of explosive volcano eruptions, 2010 saw its share of natural disasters across the planet.

The Maya calendar is a system of distinct calendars and almanacs used by the Maya civilization of pre-Columbian Mesoamerica, and by some modern Maya communities in highland Guatemala and Oaxaca, Mexico.
The essentials of the Maya calendric system are based upon a system which had been in common use throughout the region, dating back to at least the 6th century BC. It shares many aspects with calendars employed by other earlier Mesoamerican civilizations, such as the Zapotec and Olmec, and contemporary or later ones such as the Mixtec and Aztec calendars. Although the Mesoamerican calendar did not originate with the Maya, their subsequent extensions and refinements of it were the most sophisticated. Along with those of the Aztecs, the Maya calendars are the best-documented and most completely understood.

The fact is the Mayan calendar does end on December 21st or 23rd 2012. The fiction is that the world will end! This is just the end of a cycle. Much like December to January. When the year ends, the world does not stop.
