1. Introduction
This is an article I wrote in response to many questions about the end of the Mayan calendar. This very accurate calendar ended a 27,500-year cycle on December 21, 2012. I had been invited by a Mayan organization in Merida, Mexico to celebrate the change of era with them.


We are at the crossroads. Before us is a road and a path. The road is an easy one, accepting things as they are and blending comfortably into the system.
