History

History we make

I just woke up with the thought that what history we making and in a numbers of years ahead what it would read as.

When I read my history in school I remember the periods of reign where there were praises of what people did, how society prospered and what beautiful monuments they built. But was pondering what our future generations will be reading about us.

1990- 2010 (India)

People claimed to be very intelligent, most of them worked on computers or something related to that and were catering to needs all over the world. They built houses which were reaching up to the sky, taking away all the greenery and making concrete jungles. They cut green old trees, and never planted back again for us.

They did not build any great monuments they had some constructions of flyovers which took them decades to build them and they didn’t look great or did they have great value. They broke down some old beautiful structures and build some sad looking big buildings on them. And they were the ones who polluted the cities and encroached agricultural land.

I don’t want to go into politics, I guess its would be the Civics or some other subject to study by choice, it’s not History if that is included here we might have the entire text book for it.

Is this the History we are creating?
