    grateful for what we have. My grandma’s name is Usha Patel and she currently is 66 years old. She was born in Umalla, India and she grew up with her brother, parents, and her grandparents. During that time period, nobody owned phones or any type of technology. If they wanted to contact people, they would have to mail letters. There were post offices almost around every corner.

    Do You Know About Past American History? “A people without the knowledge of their past history, origin and culture is like a tree without roots”(Marcus Garvey). I think that this quote is a good example of people today. A lot of people need to learn about our past history if they haven’t yet already. You need to learn our past history because we need to learn of our past wars, how far our country has come since 1776, and for people to show our Veteran’s and soldiers more respect. These

    Technology: Past, Present, and Future Remember the days of the Old West? The women walked around with their parasols or rode in a horse drawn carriage and the men rode fast and furious on their horses. Everything you needed was right there in town: the saloon, the general store, and the barber. When one needed to get somewhere, they would walk. If they needed to travel far, there were steam-powered locomotives. As towns and cities grew larger, it was not so convenient to walk everywhere. There

    brightest and most successful beings on earth. We've discovered lands, invented medicines and technology, and endured through catastrophic episodes. Everything we use in our daily lives has evolved from its original state. Some life-changing events occurred last year, or maybe centuries ago. Most people couldn't care less how, why, when, and where occasions were taken place and think learning about the past is useless, but I have to disagree. As a student who has been taking social studies classes

    Memory In The Giver

    • 604 Words
    • 3 Pages

    If there was a world where no one knew what took place a century ago, how the Earth was created, or what life was like before urban cities, would society be better off? There has only been one answer: no. How would the human race learn without memory? How would students make the right decisions? How would everyone remember feelings? We wouldn’t. Memory is the only way to hang onto those precious moments that humanity wishes would come back. Memory is also sometimes bad, nevertheless, that shapes

    best, at anything and everything. We want to be able to find that knew unknown and once we do we want to know more, so science doesn’t even have time to celebrate their discoveries before we ask, what else from them. Science can not only explain the past on how and why events happened when they did, or how they did. Science can predict the future and what it may hold for us. We are in such a need for science that not many people even realize it is in everything all around them, science played a part

    The function of ‘memory’ in Cinema Paradiso is to fill in the gap between past and present. The two are inseparable for none of which cannot survive or exist on its own without the other. Suppose the theory that Light takes millions of years to reach us from far off stars, then light which left stars that were 8000 light years away is reaching our eyes now, even if the stars are no longer there. Memories are what sparks out from the supernova of our lives and it travels all those light years to emit

    advances, the only way to be an even more powerful society is by studying the history of the past. The past is used as a reference for the present to better our future. These sources would never be comprehensible if history was never studied. (insert thesis) Peter Sterns wrote, “...history must serve as our laboratory...” Thinking of this into a deeper context, what is being applied here is the past was a lab experiment. Every era gives off a new answer that is reflected upon and altered
