I’ve just seen a movie that set me thinking about the title. I’m sure all you had thought about the ‘End-of-the-world’ thing once in your life. But this movie(Seeking a Friend for the End of the World), set me thinking. How would I wanna die, when I know that things are gonna come to an end..
So, have you thought about it? How would you wanna die,given a choice? Who’d you be with? Friends?Family?Girlfriend/Boyfriend? Neighbor? or with a random stranger?
What would you do in the mean time,knowing that the end is near(It would be near perfect if there was a timer,just like in the movie).Go fuck with random strangers?Go rob a bank? Or rather shoot yourself with a gun ?
I know. The title offers a wide scope to set your imagination on fire.But,since we all know that the Mayan shit is nearing and nobody guarantees total safety; who knows what will happen tomorrow.
I’m not sure what I’ll do. I had plans.To be very frank,most of my plans were my guilty pleasures(namesake!). But apart from that,I see now that besides my family and friends, I’m gonna die alone. Born single and die single. Could never find my mate. hmm.. that’s somewhat depressing to know. Isn’t it ?
I mean, we all live our lives as if there’s no end to it. We just waste off our time here doing things we really don’t wanna do. For the sake of doing things, we’re engaged with them. Not for the fun of it. Only in the time of adversity we’ll ever know what to do really with the life we have. Think about it. Our whole life would be pointless once we’ve faced such a situation. Whatever we’ve done till then in our lives. Most of the things would be pointless. Except for the memories we have of those little moments of joy. Those little shattered pieces of glass in our lives. The one’s that hurt us. The one’s that left us bleeding. Those would be the only things we’d have with us in the end. Memories. Nothing more.
Now,I’m not saying that you should make this a point to quit doing what you’re doing right now and wander off. That would be just escaping from the realities of life. I mean, I want to do a lot of things I wish right now.But I am, just like all of us here; bound by the laws of this society. As much as we speak about it,all of us are afraid to be the outlaws here. So, even though I may speak and wish of the ultimate freedom that only come at an apocalyptic time, I’m not at liberty to go and slap my bitchy college lecturer or grab some hot ass on road. I know, that would be suicide.
So coming back to where I started. If it’s really the end coming, what would you do? Where would you wanna be? Who’d you wanna be with. As of now, all I can say is this. I’d be with my friends and family,cos they’re the only one’s I have as of now. I really don’t wanna die single. I so desperately don’t wanna be such an unlucky loser.But there must a way of things, right? I so dearly wish, I’d not end up alone.
Better make a backup plan,guys. Some things, just drive you nuts..
