End Of The World As We Know It

Well I’ll have to admit, we humans lasted way longer than I was expecting us to. The year 2032 is a crazy year to get to considering the shit in the previous decade. We’ve had scares before I guess, many many scares before, but not like this. There’s no coming back now. How do I know that? The fucking sun is flickering. It’s never done that before I bet. You think I'd be more upset about this but I’ve been expecting this day to come since early 2025. I think I’ve come to terms with the mortality of man and our self destructive nature. We’ve always done this to ourselves. We’ve always had hatred in our blood. I know we’re not born with hatred, but when learned, it’s near impossible to get rid of and most people aren’t willing to try. Our years and years and years of miss treating the earth have come back to kick us in the ass. To be honest, I kinda think this might be the best case scenario. Smart people might be able to survive a bit after and maybe rebuild, but the dumbasses and most other people would be gone too. I could try to stick about but I don’t really think it’s worth it. Having come to terms with mortality, I’ve lived a really good life. I’ve married, I’ve had a stable career, and I’ve lived a good life. That's all gone now and I think I’m okay with being gone too. The second that sun fully goes out I’m done. Some might find that a bit depressing but I don’t. I think it’s a good ending. Ending my life with the sun. Some smarter person than me would find the poetry and symbolism in that, say some fancy ass words and probably cry, but I don’t know. I think it kind of speaks for itself in a basic sense. I think it’s a fitting end for me. I’ve lived, I’ve learned, and I’ve loved. I’ve had a good life and I’m proud of that. I’ve gotten everything I’ve ever wanted and I’m surprised to say it too, but it was enough. It was more than enough. In all the shit that’s happened in this world, I’m actually just happy that I got to see the good in it despite the bad. So here I am, saying goodbye. I think that knowing when you’re done, knowing when to stop going is half the battle. I wish all those who are going to try and keep going good luck, and I hope all those like me who are done are going to have a good afterlife. Goodbye world. Hey, I said something. But for real. Goodbye world, and goodbye to the unfortunate souls who had to suffer through this shitty world and the ones who will try to keep going after.
