Many people think that History is such a boring subject.
Many people say that they hate it in school and they
often sleep in the class
during this subject. And if you are one of them, then this post wants to talk
to you.
Yes, everybody has his or her right in terms of liking
something. But today, I just want to open your mind to the other dimension of
History which is definitely opposite to what other say… So, here are 3 reasons
for you to like History.
1.
History will trace your identity and racial
roots.
Yes, you are a living creature in this
world, and for sure from the day that you had your consciousness asking about
who you are, then History can clear up your mind. Aside from that, you will not
wonder anymore why your color, language, culture, etc are a way different
compare to other creatures in this world. Why? Ofcourse World History will
explain it for you.
2.
History is the best “true to life” novel with
the complete set of real and true stories all over the world.
Yes, maybe you like Harry Potter, Twilight,
and other famous novels which are mostly fictitious; but there are so many
History books with a lot of interesting true to life stories. The good thing
about them is that they were real and they are very close to the reality of
life. Actually there are so many controversial and amazing stories in History.
What you need is just to dig them up and do more research. Be resourceful. You
can search or buy new books and some reports about it. Just think about
Cleopatra, Alexander the Great, Julius Caesar,
Charlemagne,
Hitler,
Henry VIII
with Anne Boleyn, and many other interesting stories….they are too many to
mention.
3.
History
could be your ultimate mirror to reflect yourself…
Yeah, you can learn about everything in
this life through
History: how to remember facts. Human emotions, intellect, dreams, anger, sacrifice,
failure, victory, and many interesting subjects of being human are being put
together as one package in History. You can get a lot of analysis, evaluations,
and reflections why those events happened in the past. And also you can ask it
to yourself if you are doing it also. Remember, those stories maybe old, but
the
EMOTIONS and
INTENTIONS of men behind it are never different. Same
emotions, dreams, goals, longing, anger, etc… In short, History paints the real
life situation of men. It’s the
real life MOVIE that you should be watching for
always.
Yes, maybe you are just tired reading and listening some old
stories of the past… But never forget that where you are right now is also the
same place where the movie of the History of the past occurred. Never think of
repeating them again or else you are making the story “really” boring. So, I
hope these 3 reasons why you should like History will just add some little thoughts
of your day today. Let’s make great History everyone… Good luck in your
journey!
