John Michael Stipe was born January 4, 1960 in Decatur, Georgia. He has said things like "losing my religion" and "it's the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine." Ironically, I am just a little younger then Stipe, and I have thought about the same lines irrelevant to him saying them. I do believe both songs are a major part of American history. Even more ironic, however, I also lived in Decatur, Georgia a few years ago when I was young. It is a nice town with awesome people. I don't think I had the same revelations and inspirations as Stipe did because of that fact, however. Honestly, I am probably still trying to figure out what that period in my life was all about, but I ain't complaining. Anyhow, this isn't a fancy post. But, I do believe we may really be at the end of the world as we know it. And, I really do feel fine. Of course, Stipe and I are probably not even on the same page as to why we feel fine. And, Stipe might not be feeling all that fine right now, but I would tell him to give it a little time and see how things line up unexpectedly. My apologies if you don't understand the purpose for this post. It was written for me and not you. I just gave you a peek into some of my thoughts just because.
A relevant video.
