End of World.
From my childhood day
I heard many a time about ends of world and it
was really brutal and terrific. I shuddered at very thought of it...
It was cold windy
night in Zhemgang. Everyone was glued to their book as board exam was just few days away. Outside it was dead silent except for occasional bark of
dog. Suddenly, there was a huge
confusion and uproar outside. Some were shouting there is no point in studying. One of my friends
went outside and when he came inside, there was a look of confusion in his eye.
When I inquired about it, he said scientists around the globe are
conducting some kind of experiment in Europe. If the experiment goes wrong then
whole world will end. After that, eerie silence crept in our room. Then I found myself in hot debate with my fellow friends who supported the
idea of end of world by some kind of weird experiment. Since many of the
believer were from science class and as I was from arts section. They simply outmaneuvered me by saying that I don't know a thing about
experiment. Even though I didn't have a knowledge of experiment that was going
on, I found it especially hard to believe how the world can let such a
potentially dangerous experiment happen if it is true. But the world did not
end that night. Then all the talk about end of world subsided quickly.
Then I thought world is not ending in my time. But I was soon proven wrong when
I reached college, I again heard about world ending in 2012. So the end of
world was merely postponed!
It is 2012 and world
have not yet ended but for me may thing had changed. I came out of
comfort of college and school; I had to face harsh reality of job market. I did
not heard about end of world being postponed and didn't even cared. But for
couple of week it has been end of world for me after RCSE exam, sometime I wonder
end of world in 2012 is especially true for me.
