As Netflix humbly predicted, the apocalypse is indeed, nigh.

It always starts off as a small virus, nobody panics and then people, indeed start to panic. As the world slowly crumbles, little do we know that we are the last people on earth.

But maybe, this was what we all needed. As the world has become more and more closed off due to technology, phones, screens and jobs. None of us have friends, or if we do, we don’t get to see them. Some of us, have online friends, but even that isn’t really, real. If someone has a party, (which they won't) no one will even grace the invite with a response. Their tired thumbs, too lazy to grace the gesture with the courtesy of a reply. True living is a thing of the past.

But if the apocalypse happened, maybe things would change. Maybe rich people will open their houses to the poor. Shallow influencers making a living off their looks, cease to exist. Phones are tossed aside in the hope to find food and water. REAL skills are sort after, cared about, acknowledged.

We will learn to help each other again. See people for who they really are. See people in a way that isn’t about how much money they have, how many followers they have or how big their house is. But seen for who they really are, a nice, kind, unselfish human being. A survivor.

I can stop worrying about my future. About whether I’ll be able to over achieve enough. To beat my peers and give my parents something to brag about. I can stop worrying about whether I’ll be successful (whatever that means). About whether I will make myself worthy to be a part of society on this planet, in the eyes of my peers and parents. 

That will all go away. I won't have to worry anymore. And men will stop treating women like throwaway wank sheets. A hole to have sex with. To satisfy a need. A hole that doesn’t speak if preferable. They will appreciate who they have because there aren't many women left. 

True, I obviously do not want this to happen. Don’t take this literally, but understand what this represents.

Imagine the change that would occur. We would get the beauty of the 70′s back. We would know what it means to LIVE again.
