Time Periods

made me wish I could of grown up in another time period. I would have loved to grow

up in the late 50s and wear clothing similar to the Brady Bunch children. Or watch the civil rights movement occur. Or even be there for the American Revolution. I think the major accomplishments  that occurred during these time periods have shaped the world today. Those significant events changed the course of history in a positive way. I would have loved to experience those crucial moments when history was being made. I could have asked questions and saw historical figures. The civil rights movement, developments in science, music and mathematics are just a few examples of advancements from these time periods.

 Unfortunately, I am unsure what people are going to take away from the present time period (2000-2011). Will it be the latest raps, the technology or the violence? I think this time period doesn’t include the culture and art that past time periods have. I wonder what impact will this generation have on other generations to come. I want this time period to be remembered and to forever change the world. Years to come, I hope people wish to have experienced living in this time period, but I’m not so sure that will happen. I hope that significant changes occur, so our time period can be remembered. How is it possible that despite being so advanced, we have yet to leave a mark?
