There
will come a time when we will face a crossroads where
we must choose to change or be enslaved by ideals. We
must think for ourselves and not be caught up in the things

who we are and who we can become in this flesh.Read

Many
races have made glorious cultural contributions to our planet. The
pyramids, stonehedge, Indian cave drawings, ancient scrolls, and many
other things have given humans unique and interesting styles. Appreciating
these qualities makes life more interesting and contributes to human
development.
Many of us remember traditions that held a connection
to our interactions with others and our community. These things give
us a sense of culture and belonging. In world travels, it become evident
that culture exists and enriches the lives of those in that community.
Recognizing the value in this is part of respecting human expression.

Stonehenge
Stonehenge
is believed to originate around 2500 BC. Its sturcture and purpose
have been under speculation for centuries.This English prehistoric
display of large stones that are stacked and placed in a circular
fashion indicate that someone had intended for them to be that way.
Some have speculated that it was a burial place, a time measurement,
or a healing place.
There
is a legend of giants helping Merlin build Stonehenge. This Arthurian
legend indicates that these stones originated from Africa and that
the rocks were nicknamed, "The Giant's Dance". According
to the legend, Stonehenge was originally built in Ireland and was
later moved to England. Apparently, after the giants placed the stones
in Ireland, men could not move the stones until Merlin stepped in
and used "gear" and aquired skills to move them. (Source:
