Corner of solitude

You know what folks? I dread this time of the year, not because I have to go to my auntie’s at Christmas for a family reunion and pretend to everyone that I’m happy to see them again, or have to go out on new years eve with a bunch of friends, who are all going to end up drunk and feel very sorry for themselves the next day. No folks, it is because at about this time of the year I have this nagging feeling that the end of our civilization as we know it, is imminent.

If you think I have joined a cult who are into shit like the end of the world is nigh kinda stuff then you are wrong. Oh all right, I am into the end of the world is nigh stuff, you got me…But I’m not in a cult. I am simply saying that the culture of today, predominantly western culture, is too decadent which thrives on personal gains, greed and corruption and may become the downfall of society and ultimately the world’s civilization. And christmas and new years is one example of that decadence. Society is such that there is more chance of wiping out the world at the hands of mankind than from a natural disaster. Or a natural disaster as a result of mankind. At the risk of sounding like an arrogant bastard I won’t make this post into another one of my “christian point of view” sermons. I’ll just stop it at that. And…oh yeah happy holidays.
