Silent History Speaks

You do not know - but history speaks to you in every way imaginable. You, a human yourself, are secretly intrigued about the musings and ideas of your fellow humans. Those who have experienced a whole life, recorded it and died, leaving bits of their life for you to uncover. Your high school teacher may have destroyed history, but how can you not become intrigued by those before you? History can speak for itself, its wonders are ready to be uncovered by you, the public. Yet, many stray away from it, believing it to be "boring" or "useless". For those of you out there, I speak for history. History deserves a voice because the name History - it is simply a label. A label for the lives, ideas, thoughts, and esscene of those who lived before you. Your grandparents, your ancestors, and even those who you are not remotely related to. Their ideas, their lives have affected you and your life. You may not even know it but, everywhere you look and every moment you breathe, you take in something so great, that many do not even know it.

Therefore I challenge you, do not take history lightly becuase it is our past, it is our present, and will be our future.
