When i know the end of the world

---

God whispered to me one quiet morning:
“The world ends on January 1, 2030.”

I did the maths.
Just 4 years and 7 months left.
I sat with that knowledge, heavy and strange, like a ticking clock inside my chest.

Then came December 31, 2027.
Someone else found out.
Wide-eyed, they gasped, “Only 2 years left?”
Yes. Tick, tock.

By December 2029, the truth had unraveled through every circle, every whisper.
Everyone knew.
“Just one month to live!”
Panic dressed as purpose, chaos cloaked as clarity.

And then, right on schedule—
January 1, 2030.
The world ended.

We all woke up somewhere hot. Somewhere red.
Hell, of course.
Where else do you land if you believed in God but still behaved like this?

They found me there.
Surrounded me.
Eyes blazing hotter than the flames.

"Why didn’t you tell us sooner?" they demanded.

I looked at them, calm, tired.
“Tell me,” I said, “what good would it have done?”

They stammered, desperate.
“We could have stopped it! We could have... prevented it!”

I asked, “How?”

They looked at each other.
No answers. Just silence.

Somehow.

Somehow was always the plan.

No this is not a philosophical post

That’s what early diagnosis is like.
The earlier you know, the more time you might have to change the outcome —
even if you don’t yet know how.

If i cannot change my outcomes like death or patient centric metric is the early diagnosis valauble?

If I find out I’m prediabetic — before I ever feel a single symptom —
Can I change the outcome?
Can I delay or even prevent the onset of diabetes?
Can I reduce the risk of future complications and comorbidities?

If my bone density is found to be low during a routine screening test,
Can I take action now to lower the risk of fractures and falls later?

If I undergo breast cancer screening,
Does it actually improve my survival rate?

If a child is diagnosed early with cerebral palsy or developmental delay,

Does it prevent say contractures from developing?
Can early intervention and rehabilitation change their long-term function and quality of life?

These are the critical questions.
Because the value of early diagnosis doesn't lie in just knowing —
It lies in whether that knowledge leads to meaningful change.
