If you could meet a historical figure, who would it be and why?
I really wouldn’t be interested in meeting a historical figure. I would be more interested in their experiences and what they could teach us. They say “history repeats itself.” And it looks like what’s some of what’s going on in the world is taking place again.
The treatment of others comes to mind. Respecting our neighbors and making small sacrifices in order that we may learn to live more peacefully with one another. 
The educational system in America has taken the study of history in our schools. Seems to me it should be one of the top 5 classes that needs to be taught. It’s heartbreaking to me, that the trend in America right now if dumbing down our children, and manipulating their bodies all for the money hungry.
We should be looking at our historical figures for what they could teach us. Not, just to meet them.
From Pity to Praise
