According to the Mayan calendar, tomorrow the world will end.  Dun, dun, dun….

I’m not a doomsday person, but I like to think about the possibility.  Not because I want it to happen, but because I believe that there are unexplained forces outside of our control and that you just never really know what can happen.  Maybe it’s not a catastrophic world ending, but it could be a personal one or it could feel like one (just think about the tragedy at Sandy Hook).

Whether the world ends tomorrow or not, I feel happy that I’ve lived my life and I don’t have any regrets.  It’s not that I don’t still want to live and experience things, but if it had to end, given my life thus far, I’m happy.  I think it’s important to take stock of your life from time to time and see if you are living it the way you want to.  We can get so caught up in the everyday that we lose sight of experiencing things.  Life is so short, that I think we need to spend it being as happy as possible.  Are you happy with your life?  And if not, what will you do to change it?
