Is the end coming soon?

The pandemic came… THIS IS THE END!

The war in Europe erupted… THIS IS THE END!

And another thing... THIS IS THE END!

Some people I know have an obsession with the end of the world or the civilization as we know it. Recent events and the general situation of the world has instigated that obsession even more.

Now, my question is if the end is coming soon or not.

There is a general law that all civilizations start small, grow until reaching a maturity stage and they end; it is like a bell curve and it has worked for most civilizations.

From that point of view, perhaps for the first time in recorded History, we are living an unusual situation: the world is ONE civilization.

With globalization, we have reached our maturity and, of course, we are in our descent. It means, at some point we will reach the end.

What the curve bell does not show is that every time a civilization reaches its end, another replaces it, many times in a chaotic way as this new civilization is just starting.

However, as there is technically ONE civilization… well, there is nothing to replace it.

So, it is quite possible that our descent will mean this civilization will end.


What are you doing to prepare yourself? And what are your thoughts about THE END?
