History is a mistress...

History is a mistress of the world.  In Her lie secrets and truths so profound they reveal humanity's deepest undercurrents.  Some of these she is willing to devulge, some you have to search for, and some yet she will never reveal.  Try as you may, caress Her as you will, History will never share Herself without considerable effort and sacrifice.  Like a modest lady does History need encouragement to open Herself to the curious mind.  Sometimes what is found is horrendous; sometimes it is touching; sometimes it is baffling; but always is it experienced with a sense of discovery that drives every historian to court this mysterious mistress and to learn all of Her ways at whatever personal cost.

I'm impressed :) I find it really neat how you refered to History as a 'female/Her.' It made awesome sense and they do really go together- the way you've explained it.

Thats Art, sweety! Keep it up!
