Interesting Times

January 23, 2012

The year 2012 has grown in myth for a decade now, if not before by a minority of people. Of course all of the discussion has centered around the Mayan calendar date of December 21, 2012. Will the world end, will there be a new awakening, or will nothing happen at all?

You can get some heated discussions for any of the above scenarios.

But where the rubber meets the road and where boots on the ground come into play, the question is more about what might happen BEFORE 12.21.2012.

>Will the EU’s decision today to place an embargo on Iranian oil cause Iran to shut of the Strait of Hormuz and run oil prices up to $150 a barrel?
>Will Israel take advantage of any Iranian action to attack their nuclear plants?
>Will the M9 coronal mass ejection (just short of an X flare) of yesterday, and due to arrive in two days, cause telecommunication disruptions?
>Will Greece implode and be the domino that spirals the world economies into a major depression?

Gregg Braden writes, “The human race is at a unique turning point. Will we choose to create the best or all possible worlds, or something devastating”?

Indeed we are faced with some life-transforming situations which have consequences that are one hundred and eighty degrees in direction. What is obvious is that we can longer afford the luxury of “kicking the can down the road”. Will we follow the spirit that’s within each of us or will we listen to our ego? Has our conscience been so seared that we can no longer identify spirit from ego?

Or, do you not see 2012 and these times wherein we live all that serious?
