History
"History is the memory of things said and done. ... " I agree that history includes everything said and done, to a certain extent. There are levels of history. ... If an action proved to be important to an individual in the present or the future, that incident would be a sort of personal history. If it were meaningful to a large group of people, it would be a less individual kind of history. The type of history that is commonly taught is the less personal kind. History teachers think that this kind of national history has more relevance to each persons life than the more individual events. However, sometimes the personal events are more important and leave a bigger impact on an individual than the national history.
