Do we make history or does history make us what we are? Do we allow our lives to be dictated by history or do we attempt to make our history the 'new' future; do we have an impact in history, and the future, or do we allow ourselves to be the 'victims' of the impact of history upon us, having the future shaped for us by others?Imagine that there are people out there who will make us part of their history, and make their future our future; world leaders, artists, authors, and scientists. But what of the ordinary people - in the neighbourhood, or that person in their car, passing you on the road? Is that person harbouring secrets that you could not begin to comprehend? What if that person had secrets that they are not aware of; secrets that could have a major impact on the lives of everyone, everywhere, throughout the whole of time?
