Interesting discussion. Thanks for the diversity of opinion everyone. I'm not a doom and gloom person. I wasn't aware of Atkins before this last week, and posted his video to spur discussion. Whether or not his predictions come to pass remains to be seen. I firmly believe human consciousness is so powerful that if we put our minds and hearts together on co-creating a better world, it would manifest very quickly. And that includes being able to change negative Earth changes into a positive healing path.

From my perspective, I'm noticing a definite uptick in synchronicity, from being in the right place at the right time to running in to people from years ago, making new friends with the same vision, doors closing only to have another one open up with greater opportunities, and generally feeling very optimistic about the future despite what is going on around me.

I have to be careful about what I wish for it seems. We all do. The time between intention and manifestation is scary short.
