"A people without the knowledge of their past history, origin and culture is like a tree without roots. " ~ Marcus Garvey

Do you agree or disagree with Garvey? What is your nationality? Do you celebrate it's unique culture ?

I'm a USA citizen. Born here and educated as part of the melting pot. *Laugh* Talking about the melting pot of our society will date me. I watch the emigrants trying to get into the USA thinking it will change their way of life and it will, but maybe not in the way they wanted it too.

Christians are told we are being grafted into Jesus's tree, so we have deep roots.

I never thought history was boring as I have heard some students confessing. I go out of my way to read all kinds of historical accounts. Some are true, some are not so true. I like archeology studies as well.

I like the family stories of my grandparents. I have only been able to hear some of them on one side of my family, as one side of my family seems to ignore the fact that families have two sides.

Garvey is right, but you can only delve into life at a certain deepness, and you have to include your own daily life. You make your roots as you live your daily life. Some families know their history. Others do not know their history. Daily life is important as well. Pass on what you know and live one day at a time. It's important for you to know you are alive and moving on.


Happy Holidays wherever you are.
