How do you see yourself?

As someone living only day to day?
As someone bound to the year 2025?
As someone caught in the noise of the 21st century?
As someone shaped by the United States?
As someone stretched between two worlds?

Or do you see yourself as part of a much longer story—
one that began before you were born,
and one that will continue after you are gone?

History is not something you read or hear about.
You are history.
And when you see yourself through its lens, the struggles shrink, the opportunities grow, and the weight of change becomes clearer.

Like the ocean, history carries us in its tides.
The question is not whether you are part of it, but how you will shape the current.
