As the rush to make it before December 31st, 2020 intensifies, let it be known that some persons residing in many other parts of the world could be less concerned about your rushing to meet up by the year end.
This is because these Calendars do not begin and end the same time.
Just bear in mind that man invented the calendar and over the years adjusted it, abandoned it or reinvented it to suit his purpose.
January 1st is not the beginning of the year for everyone on earth. Likewise, December 31st isn’t the end of the year for everybody on earth.
Always try to draw up a broad plan for yourself and pursue it throughout the days of your sojourn on earth and do not over worry your self about a particular calendar.
