Hello boys,
I would like us boys to start talking about great men in history. Men have done, and are still doing, and will continue to do great things in the world. I think it would be great if we could share some stories about those men. I hope you have someone in mind you would like to write about. It can be in your own words, paraphrased, or copy/pasted. It doesn’t matter, as long as you say what it is you need to say and it gets your point across. Your story can be about a man from your own country or from anywhere; it’s a big world with lots of men who made history. We just need to keep the stories brief, just a few paragraphs at most, and maybe include a quote if you can find one.
Let’s learn some great stuff together. I’ll start…
"I am not afraid of an army of lions led by a sheep; I am afraid of an army of sheep led by a lion." -Alexander the Great
Alexander the Great, born in 356 BCE, was the King of Macedon and one of history's most successful military commanders. By the age of thirty, he had created one of the largest empires in the ancient world, stretching from Greece to northwestern India. Known for his tactical genius, charismatic leadership, and the cultural diffusion that resulted from his conquests, Alexander aimed to meld the cultures of East and West. His legacy includes the spread of Hellenistic culture and the founding of many cities that became centers of learning and culture.
Boys, whatever nation you're from, there is a story to tell. Post something that stands out. Let us all learn from the past, see the comparisons in our present and prepare for the future. It doesn't matter how you tell it, tell us who you admire.
Keep smiling 🙂
