Why History?

Acknowledging our past allows us to move on

BUT

It also allows us to realise that we as humans are not independent of our actions

From the day we are born we are responsible for everything that we do

We are responsible for how we learn

For what we learn

We are responsible for what we are motivated by

What we live for

Or die for

For how we are represented

For what we become

For our motives

There is always a choice.

Always.

It may not always seem favourable, but there is one.

We are responsible for our own curiosities.

For our humanity. And what this entails.

Our aims, visions, dreams are redefined century upon century – we live in a state of constant change and refinement – because we are human, because we make mistakes, but most importantly, because we acknowledge what has gone before us and strive to do things differently.
