United States of Amnesia

Have you ever wondered why history is so important? Think of History as a bad ex. You can't ignore or deny them, because they shaped a part of you. You can't erase or change them, because the truth is the events happened whether you want to remember or not. Why do we have to learn about the past, when we live in the present? Well, the answer is simple. George Santaya said, “those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.” And trust me, you don't want to repeat some of the mistakes that people have made in the past. History can teach us valuable lessons, and ignoring history can lead to world altering disastrous consequences. So, the next time you think that history is boring, remember history is not only fun, but also essential. Because if you don't learn from history, you might be doomed to repeat it. This is your personal history, and the world’s global history. You don't want to be the next Titanic, do you?
