“Remember this lesson.
History does not teach fatalism.
There are moments when the will of a handful of free men breaks through determinism and opens up new roads. People get the history they deserve.” -Charles de Gaulle.
History surely does not teach fatalism. "History is more of realism lived by some other folks from time past."
We must not see ourselves as being condemned because of some stories from before our time, we have to be men and women of will who can breakthrough the roadblocks of life.
I have seen too many stories from time past that should make me not want to wake up in the morning, I may never want to live again if I allow these stories to take center stage in my life.
I have a mindset that reeks of determination and with that, I see myself breaking new roads.
We started from back when there are no other social media that offers reward for when you make a content contribution. We all thought Steemit was too good to be true.
How in the hell would some peeps dash you money because you are being social?
Before Steemit, there was no other platform that gave rewards. This platform blazed the trail in social media innovation and now, everyone is getting into the business of rewarding users for their contributions.
Steem is over 2 years and that means it is from before now even though it started an innovation way ahead of its time.
With the various new platforms popping up from thin air, are we to say "History here is fatal?" I think not.
I think history is a lesson meant to be learnt and put into creating more meaningful ventures, and in no way a fatal experience.
I am living a life that shows all signs of determinism and because I am constantly looking to making an inroad even through the blockades that have stopped many.
History is a lesson and when we look into the various lines it penned out, we will become even better for when we make a move into the future.
