Question: History repeats itself is an old saying, yet history is a great subject,!?
To learn from our mistakes is half the reason we have a memory!? I think we are half witted most of the time, because we keep making the same mistakes!? Do you think that we should stop living in the past and dwelling on all these old stories and start pushing forward into a new chapter of life on this earth!? Www@QuestionHome@Com

History is worth studying because it is the record of human success and failure!. It's also simply interesting in and of itself!. Read a few historical novels: The Clan of the Cave Bear series is wonderful!. William Wilbur writes great historical novels!. Morgan LLewellyn also writes great novels about the Druids!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

People are the same throughout history, so history will inevitably repeat itself!. It's not living in the past if it's happening right now, is it!?
So no, we shouldn't dwell on the past, but we shouldn't completely put it out of our memory!. Www@QuestionHome@Com

We should not dwell on the past too much!. But if we actually remember what has occurred, we can try something different if what happened before didn't work, or try it again if it did!. For example, what's happening with the economy!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
