My favorite subject is History, I was always fascinated by world history and still watch it every time I catch a show on TV. I was complaining a few years ago about my home town and everything I knew so long ago being destroyed and new things cropping up in their places. Finally I realized that it isn't unique to my hometown but happened since recorded time. The exact process was being carried out then and those people alive then were also thinking the same thing about their lives and hometowns. I don't let it bother me so much any longer, new history started this morning when I woke up.
