Exploring the Past
Exploring the past is a purposeless activity

All of us have little secrets which we don’t want to share with others – things which we are ashamed of, things which are too intimate to tell or just things which happened in the past and we don’t want to tell them because they may hurt someone or they may cause troubles to us.
I have the perfect example that exploring the past sometimes may be painful.
I have a friend – Lora- which is very amorous and gives all of herself for her boyfriend. But her ex one didn’t understand that. Tom – her ex-boyfriend was very weird and he wanted to know all about Lora’s previous relationships. One day he asked her why she has broken up with her last boyfriend. At first she didn’t want to talk about that but he was urging her. So she told Tom that she has betrayed her last boyfriend and that was the reason of their parting. When she has been at a party at a friend of her she has got very drunk and a boy from the party has embraced the opportunity and got alone with her. In the morning she couldn’t remember anything but it has been too late. The lover had gone off. Her only fault was that she had drunk so much but she wasn’t guilty for the rest of the occurrence. But her then boyfriend didn’t understand that and he left her although she loved him very much. As for Tom he thought Lora could do that again. They have been together for two years and he chucked her up because she might repeat the same mistake again. It was such a stupid reason. She could correct her mistake but she loved Tom very much. He loved her too but feelings were obviously insufficient to keep them together. They both pined after each other for a long but they didn’t get together again.
We can’t return the time and fix our mistakes, nobody can change the past. So it is extremely purposeless to explore the old times. It’s just a waste of time which we can spend in creating the future.

    In the book, Discovering the Global Past, Merry Wiesner describes the Crusades from both the Muslim and Catholic perspective. For both religious groups, Wiesner alludes to the fact that people’s biases and the creation of “the other” had shaped negative views of the two groups. In this paper, I will argue how both the Catholic’s and Muslims’ had an inaccurate and partisan view of each other, which led to the creation of “othering”. I will do this by briefly showing the biases, as narrated by Malcolm Barber. I will then utilize documents from the chapter, “Two Faces of Holy War” from Merry Wiesner’s text, to show examples of how bias clouded the Muslims’ view of Catholic’s, and the Catholics’ view of…

    “There is growing acceptance all over the world that the quality of the teacher is the most important determinant of how much students learn. In this context, it makes sense to check that the national curriculum provides the right balance between providing a firm structure for shared national expectations for what students should learn and allowing enough scope for teachers to have the freedom to use their creativity to maximise student learning.” Discuss.…

    George Santayana the spanish essayist once said, “Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.” History is more than a study of things that has happened in the past it’s more on the decisions we as people make.

People who learn the history learn an extreme amount of lessons and have a better chance of making better choices just by lessons we learned from the past.…
