Of late I have been told to be careful, that the end of the world is imminent and that I should be prepared. December 2012 is said to be when it happens. How can I prepare for such an event? It is true that catastrophes have been happening all over the world, be they countries at war which have extracted horrendous aftermath or natural disasters such as earth quakes, floods, typhoons and hurricanes and other disasters that have taken a heavy toll on human life. These are taken as signs of the end of the world.
There will be a great harvest of lives but how, where and when is unpredictable so how can one be prepared?
One thing that anyone can do is to repent and atone for the sins and wrongs he has committed. This will in a way be a preparation for meeting our Maker. Worrying is of no use and will take the joy out of one’s life. Consider the law of averages: what are the chances that this event I am worrying about will ever occur? Maybe it is good to be a fatalist. “If it has to be, it has to be.”
