History

Today was a great day if I may say so... never been better in fact... I watched the long anticipated V for Vendetta... Not an everbody-show... I loved it...i gotta say that... but not everyone would enjoy this movie i guess... Also, I had the time to watch three other movies... Elizabethtown, School of Rock and Ice Age... All good movies... and on top of that... I got about half of my work done... and to butter it all up... I bought a book...

History... Some forgotten, some written and some studied... Most significant events were recorded down on history books... Leaving the people of the present to learn about their fore-fathers... Some history were forgotten past, never recorded, wether because of the lack of intelligence or the reluctance to compose the abhorrent... Either way, these historians have gone down unsaid, unheard, disremembered... Most of us humans, do not exactly appreciate the abyss of this "history"... Most of us humans, go through our everyday-lives without realizing that all that is now roots way back from the makings of our forefathers... Most of us humans, live our whole life not knowing that all that is now good and free was once fought and died for in history...

History might merely be a word to most people out there... history might just be another subject for those students who are just trying to get through their education... History might be nothing more than a tale of a grumpy old man to some... No matter how this topic is looked at, history remains the foundation of this, so called, "civilization"... Keep in mind that history is the fights and disputes of our forefathers who were sacrificing their lives just for our convenience or benefits...most of those heroic men knew very well that they wouldn't be able to experience this "age of civilization" and yet, they stood and argued... they stood and fought... they stood and died... just so that we, now, could have our luxury of freedom or the human rights or even well-deserved education... Despite all these sacrifices, people(not only children) go on ranting about having to learn how our forefathers fought or how they lived and died... Despite all these sacrifices, people still do not appreciate their advantages... Despite these sacrifices, the very same advantages which were killed and died for, which was once exalted and commemorated, are now taken for granted and vaguely remembered... or even disremembered for that fact... comdemned from its throne... Forgotten by all.....
