The World is Not Coming to an End
Published on May 29, 2006 By jesseledesma In Philosophy
Today was a strange day. It was one of those days were you expect something to happen yet nothing actually happens.

A person who I had talked about Jesus Christ did greet me as a Christian brother. I did find this strange.

I had him pegged as a die-hard catholic. To me this means they talk big about their religion but they never go to church. Unless some one is being married or buried, this to me is like the same thing.

I can say I have an honest hope that his conversion is real. In addition, for a moment I felt a sense of pride that I was able to help Jesus Christ reach him.

This however was not the dilemma of my day. I figure God gives all of at least three things to meditate on each day.

Here, writing this BLOG entry I can say that one was how to stay in the spirit when I am surrounded by so many demon possessed individuals. The only thing I came up with is to punish them. I know this is wrong.

My second meditation point was work. I came to no conclusions on this point. I am about burned out on thinking about what my place in life is supposed to be.

I see this world as full of phonies, me included. I think that most of are just giving lip service to life and God.

Too much huffing and puffing on the treadmill of life with out a rest.

If it is not being at work putting people down we are home staring at the TV.

Actually, I wonder how people get through their day with out wondering if there is anything better.

I know I am through searching. Can’t believe that there is anything wrong with resting. After all, I did what I was supposed to. Can I be punished because the world did not cooperate?

A happy home life enjoying what I have worked for should be enough. Who said that we should all be living Hollywood lives.

A nice simple life should be good enough.

I really do not think that the world is going to end soon or that Christ is coming any time soon.

I make this judgment because the bible talks about a one-world government and a one-world religion.

Christ also talked about the signs of the seasons. I believe that what we are seeing today is what we have always seen in the world, not signs that Christ is coming soon.

So I guess the message in all this rambling is that people should stop worrying about the world falling apart and concentrate on forming a basic simple life.

We were meant to work, marry, procreate, enjoy life, be part of people’s lives, and care for our community.

Instead, we spend our time in our neighbors business watching life go by.

Maybe, it is time to become real people with real lives.
