5 Songs In Memory of the World Not Ending

We have been informed that the ancient Mayan civilization ended their calendar on this day.  But most people don't have the language skills to verify that point, we just have to take the word of those super intelligent and focused people who dedicated their life to learn how to read the Mayan language. Some people thought that the world would end today, but it looks like the world will go on. It's just the Mayan calendar that will officially end today (Source).

Let's celebrate! Here are five songs to listen to tonight in memory of the world not ending. Let it be a tribute, sigh of relief, or reflection (depending on your perspective) on the Mayan prophecy on the end of the world not coming true.

Frank Sinatra - My Way



Kenny Rogers and Dolly Parton - We've Got Tonight


 

Brooks & Dunn - This Is Where The Cowboy Rides Away

Skeeter Davis - The End of the World


Michael W. Smith - My Place In This World 

 
 
And in case you are disappointed the world didn't actually end, don't worry, history says that it won't be too many more years until another complex theory surfaces that will involve a new date for the world ending. Those of us older enough to walk are old enough to recall the last time someone claimed they knew the end was near. And rest assured the world as we know it will end for us someday, but no one writes that date on their calendar. Our expiration date is a mystery, and life is lived better leaving it that way.
