Future history. No it is not an oxymoron. Historic context. The long view. Not being blinded by immediate, current events…good or bad. Rather, patiently placing current events in a context and envisioning how it will play out going forward.
Can you live your life, each day, in future historic context. Wisely choosing as opposed to merely reacting to incidents as presented to you.
Be the historian of your life. Journal the events. Find the pattern. Adjust the journey.
In the end it is your story and you have the obligation to yourself to wisely let it play out but in context. Not fearfully reacting but wisely choosing.
It is not some haphazard experience but it can be a joyful journey as you recalibrate the map and pattern with each history class of the day.
You are both teacher and student in your life's journey.
Future history. It can apply to your family too.
An ageless experiment.
