“The future depends on what we do in the present.”- Mahatma Gandhi I will be telling what my items are in the capsule and why did I choose these items to be placed in the capsule. I will also be telling the future how the past was and how we took part in our daily lives. In this paper I will discuss what items are going into the time capsule, what I want the future generations to know about the past, and why I put the items I put in the capsule and what they mean to me. First, what items will I put in the time capsule. Firstly, I would put in a photo of my dog. For Example, the future will be able to see how my American Miniature Eskimo was all white and fleecy and how petite she is in her size. Also they would be able to see how her fur flowed like shinny white clouds on a sunny day. Thus, the future would be able to know what real dogs looked like in the past and how there sizes differ on what type of animal you got. Secondly, I would put in my great grandmother rings that she gave to me before she passed away. For instance, the future would be able to see how the rings glisten in the light and how they portray a very special diamond. Therefore, the future would be able to see what the rings look like in the past and how most of the rings are real. Thirdly, I would put in a copy of my signature in the time capsule. For instance, the future would be able to see how …show more content…

    The three topics I picked are gender, race, and religion. However, my views on these subjects have not changed because I considered myself to be a very open-minded person. After reading "The Berdache Tradition" I learned that the several Native American tribes had a different kind of cultural construction of gender within their group. I was very fond of their origin myth that was about several worlds and crossing over them to find equal ground for everyone. I found this reading to be very interesting because it seems that no one takes the chance to mention the subject of having more than one gender. Usually people are focused on physical differences of sex and the expectations that are associated with gender. The same goes for the group in

  • Analysis Of William Cronon's Why The Past Matters

    685 Words  | 2 Pages

    The study of past events have been a common practice of mankind since the verbal telling of stories by our ancestors. William Cronon, in his article “Why the Past Matters,” asserts that the remembrance of the past “keeps us in place.” Our individual memories and experiences shape how we act in our daily lives. In addition to influencing us at an individual level, our collective history binds us together as a society. Without knowing where we have been or what we have experienced, it is nearly impossible to judge progress or know which courses of action to pursue. The goal of the historian is to analyze and explain past events, of which they rarely have firsthand memory of, and apply the gained knowledge to make connections with current and future events.

  • Bitter Sweet Symphony by Erin Flannery

    True, it was a hard decision when I was decided which of my classmatesí papers to choose as ìthe one.î I considered a question when trying to decide. I asked myself, ìWhat purpose this time capsule will serve?î My answer told me that the song inside this time capsule must be one that can still teach a message while telling the future generation something about our time. I believe the culmination to this answer was found in Erin Flanneryís ìBitter Sweet Symphony.î The title is fairly self-explanatory when it refers to the word bittersweet. That is what life is. We canít expect only the good or the bad. Life is a heterogeneous mixture of both. Yet this mixture comes together in a harmonious conglomerate that is altogether something beautiful.

  • The Time Machine Themes

    1085 Words  | 3 Pages

    Herbert George (H.G.) Wells’ 1895 scientific romance novella, The Time Machine, is considered to be one of the forerunners of the science fiction genre. Whilst the story was not the first to explore the concept of time travel, it is quite significant for its pseudoscientific account of how time travel could perhaps occur, this interpretation has shown to be quite influential to numerous productions in both media and literature. Wells explores a number of themes throughout this novella, however there are three prominent ones, the relativity of time, social Darwinism and evolution, and capitalism. These themes explore concepts which are relevant to society and creates connections with the intended 19th century audience.

    ...God in this future except when something new being fear and uncertainty comes up and the time traveler feels legitimately in danger. The topics Wells chooses to discuss are very relevant and except for the physical depiction of the creatures in the future, the issue of the lower class being oppressed and revolting against the upper class and especially the meaning of life are large issues that have and probably will come to life in to future. H.G. Wells’s bleak depiction of the future through The Time Machine is one with many warnings and an almost Marxist view against capitalism and its downsides. H.G. Wells chooses to include a symbol of hope through the fragile and tender white flowers, a symbol of hope to human kind to be encouraged about the fact that wherever life may lead human kind, that there is always hope and this is a very plausible outcome for mankind.
