We are like children, watching the television and reading the papers everything is a surprise. We are blind to are histories and blinded by them. We are enthralled by each spectacular happening and scared and helpless. Unlike the child our fear and ennui overcomes our sense of wonder. Ultimately the world is something that happens detached from us. We do not see the mirror when we look at it we only see the other. We need to grow up and reconstruct our histories to include us in them. We need to make history not let history make us.
