History

One of my assignments today was to do a Power Point presentation on Judaism, which included a section on the Holocaust. That got me to thinking about history and stuff. For most people today, World War II is just history, something that happened a long time ago that doesn't really affect us today. For my grandparents, it was a part of their life and will probably always be. The same goes for the Vietnam war - for me and my siblings, it's just history, but for my parents, it will always be more than that. Hopefully, for the kids that haven't been born yet, the war on terror will just be history.
