Final thoughts on Apocalypse

So by now, I've sifted through some deep thinking in regards to the idea of "appcalypse". The notion that apocalypse is no more than change has evolved slightly into the idea that apocalypse is but a change within ones self. We've been asked to describe what suprised us most about our learning of apocalypse(s). For myself, what has suprised me most isn't specifically the idea of how apocalypse has evolved, but rather how what we may originally believe about any topic can evolve. This speaks to the effect of research and education and its importance. We've done a rather extensive study of apocalypse this summer. In our study apocalypse has been assessed from a variety of angles. While individual personalities played roles in each definition, all of us experienced the progression of thought and expanded thinking that comes from extensive study. Applying the tools acquired in expanded thinking study and research will benefit us all far beyond the classroom.
