History is as we see it

Those who are writing history can alter history.   Knowledge shared verbally by some is written by others.    Family histories passed by word of mouth. 

Or in fine manuscripts.

Family histories can go back centuries.   The further back, the more blurred and confused it becomes.   A starting period of time or date needs to be determined. 

In many families the first-born son: takes his father’s name and often without a middle name.   Therefore you can see where confusion arises. 

Here we are only concentrating on the ________ from _______, and relating to those two cousins who migrated to ________ – in ____.

Note: some dates are only approximate or marked as circa. (About)

To assist the reader with those_______, directly related to the _________’ can  be difficult: 

for many first names: as   ________- ________- _______- ______ – are popular names - any used by many...

So this is where we are

Nothing can start without a beginning: most happenings have a middle or halfway mark:

Depending how long any such narrative or situation lasts: We all know everything has an ending.

So this is we find ourselves…

Ended: first the physical loss:

then the mental loss.

Followed by the combined lost of all the memories.

Today’s memories: yesterday’s memories.

So memories are online.

The shoe box in the wardrobe: on the top shelf.

All the grandchildren know where it is.

Only the older ones, have deared to look inside.

Now they too have to start from the beginning.

Who cares: about you?

People tell you - you can do and be anything you want to be.

But of cause that’s not true.

I can give you a thousand reasons why you can’t be and do what ever you want to be and do…

But I can’t be bothered.

A box of nothing

I wonder if too  much company and not enough company: can result in the same outcome?

It’s true: the old saying. One can be in a room with a dozen people and still be lonely.

Idol, random, ramblings

If you could store items in a box

• What would you keep -

Feathers, letters or rocks …

 If a lover. Colleague or friend.

• who are you - 

One the other, or pretend…

If the image (there) is not you

• concentrate - 

Constantine, Florence or Sue

four questions

Are secrets greater than knowledge?

Maybe one is as important as the other —or neither greater than either?        

Is knowledge greater than privileged?

Maybe one is as important as the other — or neither greater than either?

Is the written word greater than a photograph?      

Maybe one is as important as the other — or neither greater than either?

I just asked the questions ...

History mostly repeats itself…

History mostly repeats itself  -  just that most people don’t live long enough to see it … 

And yes: holes can be picked in this theory - but few take the time to care.
