I agree with Ladie Zadie, I do believe the world "as we know it" is going to end but it will continue. I am not sure how it will go on but do believe it will.

Now I don't often tell many people but do feel it is time to come out so to speak as I too have been paranoid about the world ending and 2012 and earthchanges etc... to the point that I held off having kids (now my little boy will be 4 in 2012), not sure what I wanted to do with my life, how earthchanges are going to affect the world etc...

I have to say for me now that my little boy is here that I am now living in the moment and trust the universe has it's plans for me in however this is going to play out. Hope that makes sense.

I do think we live in very interesting times and that we are going to be luckier then most living in australia.
