Do You Matter ?

History is a part of us today whether we like it or not. Asking ourselves does history matter is like asking yourself if you, yourself matter ? The answer, in my opinion, is YES! it does matter. Why ? Because of history we are who we are today, whether its your life's history or the worlds history. History helps us find solutions to problems we have had before in the past. history repeats itself, first as tragedy, second as farce (Marx). history really does repeat itself and it has. First it would be a tragedy and if it happens again that means no one has learned from the first time so it would have to be a farce the second time. history matters because it's very important to learn about the past, to be informed about the challenges we have come across or will need to defeat later on. Because of history we grow, imagine if you didn't know were you came from and what you are all about, you would be lost. That's why history guides us and with the knowledge we have we can one, become stronger as a nation and individual and two, past our history tests :)
