The Mystery of History

So last night I was at work and because it was a slow night I was trying to get some of my homework done.  A coworker asked what I was reading and I showed her.  She completely turned away saying that it looks so boring and how she doesn't understand why history is import to know, because it is just that, history.

The above link is one that I have kept bookmarked ever since I decide to go back to college and become a history teacher.  It is very important to me and I hold it very close.  David Crabtree writes it is about what we can learn from history and relate it to things going on in the world and our lives today.  

Personally the writing says more then I can say here, but I look at it and think that everyone can find something useful from it.  History teacher or not.
