Since August 2010, many things have changed drastically in the world.  First and foremost, the price of gasoline and food has skyrocketed to the point of putting a lot of low income strugglers, in the literal Poor House.
I feel sorry for so many people and their stories of struggling to get their next meal. But I unfortunately cannot help. For I am in the same situation. I rely on the food bank once every couple of weeks(that's their limit per family) and I have seen the food bank struggle with a shortage of food to give. Gasoline prices are laughable if, it didn't hurt the pocketbook so much. Here in Winnipeg, 1.20/liter!! Yesterday, I heard on the news that oil prices took a dramatic drop...but when I woke up this morning, the prices had only dropped by one lousy penny! Funny how they raise the price by 5 cents by drop it only a penny. The government is in cohoots with the arabs and oil companies! and lets see..$30,000.00 a year is now considered Low Income. One of the richest countries in the world has had a triple whammy of a disaster. First with the Tsunami and earthquake and then followed by another earthquake. and of course the crisis to the entire planet, the radiation leaks that are polluting the ocean and the air. The Oil barges that almost daily spill oil into our oceans and seas.
Gee, makes you really think that this is the beginning of the end. I mean, December 12 2012 is not too far off. It's all starting, by taking one country and slowly wiping it out and then more countries will have their own crisis. It will all add up to much of the world being destroyed.  Whatever you naysayers want to say about it!

The only thing that I can think of doing is watch out for myself and my family. I live in what I consider to be a safer city (crime, pollution, natural disasters) than most. Our fear is the riverbanks overflowing in spring or the occasional Tornado, and the few I've heard of were out of out city range. I'm going to try growing some veggies indoors. I almost always cook from scratch. I avoid buying processed foods. I have a few plants in my apartment to help with the oxygen levels. That's it. When something comes along that may destroy the world and everyone in it. I'll be at peace, knowing I did what I needed to do for myself and family. That's all you can do. Forget worrying about it all. Gives you Stress,Wrinkles, and probably headaches and body aches!
