Coming into 2021, we still haven't recovered from last year. We stand braced for what is to come. And we aren't going to pretend we know what that might be.
Yet what if we could know? Here are some predictions from Nostradamus about this year.
1. A comet will come very close to hitting Earth. Some say that the Mayans got it wrong when they said that the end of the world was in 2012, and that it's really 2021, but we've got eyes in many directions. No one has seen a comet barreling out way.
2. Devastating solar flares. There has already been a couple this year, although not devastating ones. They can disrupt the power grid and pipelines which we are greatly reliant upon. At least we will be freed from being beholden to social media during that time!
3. Global famine. With the pandemic, this isn't a surprise. Check out a recent article from the UN.
4. Robots launch a revolution and cyborg soldiers. Could these be linked? Skynet came online years ago, right?
5. The zombie apocalypse. Now here's the one many of us have been waiting for! Whether it comes from a virus or the "cure" for it, we'll have to see. Fingers crossed they're slow zombies!
Whatever this year brings, please go forth with love, peace, and compassion. We will survive whatever comes our way if we stand together.
Zombies *and* a robot revolution?? I guess that's how 2021 is going to try to top 2020...
ReplyDelete2021 has some big plans, obviously!
DeleteHi Christine - yes we will survive ... and I'd rather we just had to deal with humanity - and keep living for many years. Keep writing and take care - all the best - Hilary
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by, Hilary! Here's to a better year for all of us.
DeleteYears ago a boy in third grade convinced his classmates that a zombie invasion was happening because he heard his parents say, 'This drug problem is turning our kids into zombies.'
ReplyDeleteMaybe 2021 is the year it actually does!
At this point, I would not be surprised. Not at all!
DeleteHappy New Year! I'm already saddened by events of 2021. I hold onto the hope that change is coming.
ReplyDeleteMe too. And I bet that change is going to be something none of us expect!
DeleteHi! What blog template is this?
ReplyDeleteAfter the dreadful January 6th riots, 2021 pushed on toward a better trajectory, and it's brighter in late Feb, from where I write now. Let's hope it keeps on a good path.
