Here's to You, Earth

Tomorrow may be it. Or maybe not. But what if?

What if Harold Camping is right? What if the rapture does come on May 21 and five months later we all bid farewell to Earth? What if this is it?

The simple fact is, no one knows what tomorrow holds. Or the next day, or the following, or further and further on in time. Believe what you will, but this is an unshakable truth.

Faith is an iridescent spinning web of possibilities and uncertainties. However, no matter the practice or denomination, some of its pivotal lessons impart teachings of goodness and the acquisition of knowledge.

As a child, my favorite part of attending mass was interacting with fellow parishioners by spreading peace amongst each other. Either with a friendly handshake, a familial hug, or a loving kiss, wishing peace to those around you always left me with a good feeling.

I can't say what tomorrow will bring, but I know that I will do at least one thing that my religion of birth taught me. I will be spreading peace and I hope you will too.
