History in the Making! email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 59/100. MonkOVision (936)   ranked 308 out of 376 in history1 year ago

Do you often hear the term, 'History in the Making'? I've been hearing this term a lot lately in the news.

I wonder why people use this term? Every day is history in the making. Every single second of every day is history in the making. Every thing that every person does is history in the making.

Why do people tend to think that history is only made every once in awhile?

What kind of history are you making these days?

Daily events are becoming history all the time, What should really be said is,
" an event that will be recorded in history"
I don't think I'm making any conspicuous history, after all, there's nothing new under the sun, cats have been skinned and cream pies made since the dawn of time.

You know, I happen to agree with this, Monk, although I have never thought of it so literally before. Even though my history may mean nothing to you or vice versa, we are all making history in our own lives and the lives of our loved ones.

Great discussion! thumbup


myLot reputation of 59/100. MonkOVision (936)   ranked 308 out of 376 in history  1 year ago

Yes, I think that we do all make history and even though we may not think much of our individual histories, I imagine that we come into contact with people who are grateful for what we do, no matter how insignificant we may consider ourselves.


myLot reputation of 86/100. itsmefaith (2236)   ranked 360 out of 376 in history  1 year ago

I sure do hope I have some kind of positive impact on the people I care about. I don't want to make history but I do want to make a difference in the lives of people who are close to me.


myLot reputation of 59/100. MonkOVision (936)   ranked 308 out of 376 in history  1 year ago

You seem a caring person. I cannot imagine you not having a positive impact on the people you love.


myLot reputation of 86/100. itsmefaith (2236)   ranked 360 out of 376 in history  1 year ago

Thank you, Monk. That's sweet of you to say! happy I hope that's true.

Good discussion, MonkOVision. I completely agree!

What history am I making? Just trying to make a difference, just livin' the life.


myLot reputation of 59/100. MonkOVision (936)   ranked 308 out of 376 in history  1 year ago

It is good to hear that you are trying to make a difference.


myLot reputation of 91/100. makingpots (6663)   ranked 366 out of 376 in history  1 year ago

What kind of history are you making, MonkOVision?


myLot reputation of 59/100. MonkOVision (936)   ranked 308 out of 376 in history  1 year ago

I suppose that history will be the judge of that.

I think what they really mean is...important history. Sure, every single thing that happens is actually making history. But only the memorable, important events will be documented in history books, and remembered. Like say...two people get lost out at sea...and say they get eaten...by...I don't know, anything. Now if nobody finds out about it, it wouldn't be considered "history in the making"...even though they really did make history. If somehow the media got a hold of this story, then it would be something of importance to people, but only because they found out about it...and it would be televised. Then it would be marked as an important event that took place, something that people could learn from. Who knows, maybe even a movie would be made about it


myLot reputation of 59/100. MonkOVision (936)   ranked 308 out of 376 in history  1 year ago

You make a lot of sense, here. Your analogy reminds me of a movie I saw a few years ago, about two divers who were accidently left out at sea. Unfortunately, I can't remember the name of it. If such a thing happened to me I would be so scared of the sea and all it contained. Especially sharks.


myLot reputation of 93/100. Druscilla34 (11144)   ranked 332 out of 376 in history  1 year ago

I think I would be scared too. I'm pretty sure I know what movie you're talking about here...can't quite remember the name of it either. Maybe it will come to me later. Anyway, speaking of movies...I came across a good one 3 nights ago. Mom was in Florida so I had On Demand all to myself. Another desperate situation-type nail-biter, called "Right at your Door"...the ending is a SHOCKER. That's all I will say about this one cry You should check it out. I hope monks are allowed to watch TV (?)wink


myLot reputation of 59/100. MonkOVision (936)   ranked 308 out of 376 in history  1 year ago

I've not heard of that movie. Thank you for the suggestion. I will try to see it.

Ok so we all make history every day.
Some people make it with more noise than others and some make it more often by making a comeback.
I'm making no history worth mentioning here. It would be a waste of space.


myLot reputation of 59/100. MonkOVision (936)   ranked 308 out of 376 in history  1 year ago

Yes, we all make history every day.

Hi,MonkOvision!~ "Why do people tend to think that history is only made every once in a while?" I like this question.I think it is because every second is meaningful to us,so they like use the word "history" to express the importance of that moment.The history I have made today was complete the assignment I planned yesterday.hehe....
In fact,I think the real history is made by time not the news.
Happy mylotting!~^0^


myLot reputation of 59/100. MonkOVision (936)   ranked 308 out of 376 in history  1 year ago

What a thoughtful response happy
