In even simpler terms, ‘’ The world as it exists today is only a product of its past,’’ means that we are who we are today because of specific, choices, actions, mistakes, and consequences, that took place in the past. No one knows what is going to happen until it does, and then only the consequences for that specific action follow. We can assume what could have happened, but no one knows for sure what the world would be like if things had gone differently. People's choices, along with mistakes, affect us greatly,and this is where this lesson comes into play in A Little History Of The World.

From the moment I was born, then adopted in Ghanzhou, China as a six month-old infant with unknown parents, to where I walked down the aisle on the football field to get my high school diploma in the state of New Jersey, I have always had the fascination to balance life as if it were a chemical equation.

This leaves a cloudy mixture, much similar to searching for one’s own individual purpose in life. The water turns clear after a few vigorous stirs and it’s as if life went back to square one and everything were in its place. However, if life was that simplified, the whole human race would know their exact destiny and…
