I am running late, as usual, i find myself distracted by more important things... A human voice from the past... I was checking out this channel and accidentally clicked on this story, an intriguing title... I took the time to listen... A very amazing story, i also listened to the story of the egyptian roman soldier, trying to communicate with him family from far far away... These stories are incredible, like going back in time, and realizing, we are all, and have always been, timeless and ageless, wrapped up in all our feelings, thoughts and emotions of one another... We are all alike, one big human family, a big puzzle... Swallowed up, by a time machine.
I’m so glad you enjoyed! I couldn’t agree more, I think true voices from the past have to opportunity to teach us so much about our ancestors, and by learning about them we learn a little bit about ourselves. Thank you for watching and for the kind comment, we hope you click back soon!

Reminds of this poem "Excelsior".
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow is one of my all time favorite American poets! I hadn’t read Excelsior in ages, but I agree it has the same beauty in determination. Thanks for your comment and I hope you enjoyed the video!
Omg
Right? We thought this story was great too! What was your favorite part?
If British expeditions had shared information with the Norwegian Roald Amundsen, they would have been better prepared. Amundsen lost none of his men.
Yeah that’s probably true!!
