Sand storms come and go
history’s quiet whisper
empires are fleeting.

Generations pass
all leave their mark in the sand
wise souls strive to learn.

Living history…again…very nice. Pearls of wisdom just fall from your lips. I’m lucky to be on the receiving end.
hugs!

It is an interesting idea history, can we believe what we find. I’ve been thinking about this a lot lately. I heard one country was rewriting their history, so how many other countries have done the same. Sorry, probably not what you were after.

I kind of wanted to make the point that everything has a history and that we need to look at things in a longer perspective. But as you say many countries are and have been rewriting history – sometimes to present it in a less biased or less one-sided way, and sometimes the opposite….

Sorry, I think your post just remind me of something I heard recently. I love history and I love finding out about the history of places, but I have started to wonder how you can trust that history, or if indeed the real history of a place can ever truly be rewritten.
