Why we must Write By Letters of Rome
In our tumultuous world there is the tendency to give up, walk away, and turn our back on trying to make a difference. It is understandable as an easy life was promised to no one; although this modern world deceived us into believing it can. And what does making a difference even mean? The world has forever been a brutal place. I’ve seen no evidence of it being otherwise through the years I have devoted to studying it - not that I’m an expert but I have delved back a few thousand years into the Roman and Greek past. While our clothes are different, human nature has not changed. I doubt it ever will. What is this “difference” we think we can make? I have come to realise that it is not so much a difference as a contribution to how we see the world, and through our eyes whether it can impact another person trying to find their way in it. Our experiences matter. To us, and to others even if we don’t see that occurring. It could take generations to reverberate. We don’t control the timeline, merely contribute to its trajectory, all the while others do the same. So, we must Write to record our experiences. How else will anyone in the future know we have been here? We must record history
