If we have no past we have no future we are nobody. We would be shaft in the wind. Blown here and there as the winds of change created by others blow around us. If have no past we lack direction and purpose. We do not know what has been and what was strived for. We therefore reinvent the wheel over and over again. And never move forward. If we don’t understand or know how others struggled to achieve and how successful they were. We tend to believe nothing will change. We become cynical and think events have no real meaning and nothing will change.
When we see others succeed, regardless of how hard they worked, we think it is just luck. Why, because "nothing ever changes".
If nothing ever changes we would still be slaves, or still have Jim Crow, we would still not be able to go to a decent University. We would not be the head of major corporations, (Blue Cross, American Express, Beatrice foods), Brain surgeons, Rocket Scientist, Doctors, Lawyers, Secretary of State, Chairman of the Joint chiefs of Staff and President of the United states.
Things change because we make them change. Individuals, cultures, nations small group, big groups all make things change. It just takes passion, patience , hard work and a powerfull belief in your self and your past .

Be the change you wish to see.
Carry that same energy that motivated over 130 million people to vote for change.
