I hope your life is filled with good times, fun and laughter too. It's easy for people to get stuck on being too serious with all of the garbage going on in the world, but all we have to do is get by until December 21, 2012 when we will enter a new cycle of ages. The first of such cycles is a "Satya Yuga" (Golden Age of Truth), and it will be a time when you are truely blessed to be alive.
You appear to be both young and healthy. This will be a wonderful time for you. So, ignore the doomsayers, and be grateful that you are here on this earth at this time.
