How could you able to improve your present and future, if you don’t have any idea
about the past? That’s one of the lessons that I’ve learned about history, so let us tackle about it.

Enhancing my knowledge about what are the significance of history not only to me
as a person but also to everyone who are now buried their past. History is one of the most
important events that everyone should understand and need right now. We people forget
nowadays what happened in the past, that's why we don't have enough knowledge on how to
handle the present and how we face the future.

Even though remembering the past is very difficult to us because it gives tragedy to
our life, we could consider that past as our lesson and real-life experience. History makes us
stronger. As an individual person, we came from different past and events but as times goes by
we tend to erase our generation. Love the past, cherish the present, and prepared for the future as
well as or own history. My history started when God create everything on its time and make
everything perfect.

It is important to research history as a person because history helps young people

understand their own culture and how their culture and nation have evolved over time. Past gives
identity and allows individuals to unify. It gives a sense of roots and belonging to people. In
order to make their country what it is today, history shows people what their forefathers endured
and suffered in the past. History makes us recognize transition. It tracks successes and mistakes
and helps people understand them. People will learn about transition and how others are
influenced by it through these studies.

History teaches us about past travesties that have occurred. In order to honor the
memory of those lost and to ensure that it never occurs again, it is important for all individuals in
the past, present and future to never forget such events. It reveals trends and consequences of
actions or incidents in the past that can help us prevent similar outcomes in the future. A glimpse
of the future is often provided by learning about the past. This indicates a course of growth that
will continue beyond the present and into the future. Valuable knowledge, such as conventional
prescriptions, can also be found in history. Learning about past lifestyles and strategies used in
the past by individuals will retain the secrets of treatments or cures that are no longer used.

When researching the past, there are many problems that can be confronted. First is
the access to all resources. Not all that happened has been documented in the past, so there is still
missing information and questions that cannot be answered forever. Historical research's main
challenges revolve around the problems of sources, information, explanation, objectivity, topic
choice, and contemporary history's specific issues. A source in the task of reconstructing the
past, the issue of sources is a significant challenge for the historian.

It is likely that written stories are not actual. Many ancient histories are buried and
forgotten, along with their facts. People of the present generation have not been able to find the
exact past and lifestyles. Our backgrounds are changed according to the desires of some party
for some purposes and selfishness. History interacts with culture in both of the two senses, since
culture is a consequence of history in the context of historical circumstances and events, and
society may thus not avoid its past. History is concerned because of the effort of historians to
influence society's group memory and self-perception.

By providing a guide and basis for the rules and regulations enforced in our country
now, history has helped to interpret our present social and political situation. It is essential for
students to understand the concept of history as a construct, otherwise they will not be able to
make sense of conflicting and competing historical accounts presented in their daily lives.

Teaching young kids about meanings allows them to think about multiple versions
of the past. This idea can be challenging for children as it contradicts their notion that there is a
certain version of history. Teachers need to ensure that children are given only the correct
amount of ambiguity to test them by using interpretations of young children. Teaching historical
interpretations to children teaches them much about the people who created them and the
cultures in which they existed. But in order for them to fully understand and grasp the word
history is to let them know the purpose of it and why we should study it.

Based on the different articles that I’d read and videos that I’d watch about history, it was
all enlightened my mind to realize the importance of History to everyone’s life. I also learned
that each of us has a big contribution to each other’s life. The way how the people lived in the
past has something to do on how the way people live today. In every mistake that had been did
before, it becomes our strength at the present. In every victory or achievement that had been got
yesterday, it becomes our inspiration and motivation right now at for the future ahead.

Past has a big impact to all of us. Now it is crystal clear for me to realize the History’s
purpose. To learned everyone’s past can help us to learn and achieve the better today and
tomorrow. How could you able to improve your present and future, if you don’t have any idea
about the past? So, I must say, learning History is the key for improvement.
