Our Personal History is also surrounded by actual history.
These are the Sufferings and Trials that make up our Cross our Savior calls us to carry. If there is one thing guaranteed in life, it is is that it is not fair and you will suffer. The only way out of life and into eternal life is by suffering.
These are also the cultural changes that make up our way of life, with a lot of these changes that are not so good. BUT some of these changes are good with some signs of hope in the midst of evil and chaos.
In my 50 Years and 100 Posts, I mentioned some of them scattered throughout our 50 year life.
Here I isolate them for you to take a closer look at as some of these facts might have gotten lost in that rather big document.
I also decided to add stuff I didn’t mention in those other posts and also that took place beyond those posts. I added 20 years to round out the century spanning the years from 1900 – 2020. With a few years beyond.
There are more events I could have added, this is not a comprehensive and definitive list but just a record of some of the key moments that that have stood out in history that I and others have noticed and that have made a impact on the lives of many. Some sections have more information then others. Some topics have a lot more earlier dates then others. This is meant to be a reference post as opposed to reflection post. As I go about my day I discover ever more exciting and interesting things so this is a list that can be perpetually updated. You can copy this post and add your own information you think would fit here. As I said, I didn’t think of everything.
I did try to check sources as best as possible and I do find Wikipedia to be a pretty good reference for things.
In another post I take a more positive approach to looking at life in Accomplishments and Discoveries.
But for now, here is a look at some sad and painful events in recent human history.
