It is a resounding fact that history is written and the things of history repeat themselves. It would give us the best advantage to see history from a much more thorough lens this way we understand what was happening, what could happen, why it happened and we would find resolve. So, history is to be viewed through a three-pronged tool which is an excellent innovation, of philosophy, theology, and science. Now, before I’m rejected and totally ignored allow me to explain. The tools provide the 360 degrees that are missing from our perspective and are far greater than the 10 degrees we see. Let’s take a closer look the definition for philosophy from dictionary. com is the following:

1. the rational investigation of the truths and principles of being, knowledge, or conduct.
2. any of the three branches, namely natural philosophy, moral philosophy, and metaphysical philosophy, that are accepted as composing this study.

The definition suggests that the use of philosophy in your history will provide a rational investigation of the truths and principles centered on your being, your knowledge, and your conduct. So, the good and bad parts of your existence can be put through a microscope, and deduction and extraction of who you are and the components of your lineage can be understood and logical analysis will yield answers to the why, what, when, where, and how. The three branches mentioned will help you extract more holistically. But I bet it never dawned on you that you could use philosophy to understand you, and have a better view of yourself and the world around you. Natural science is the use of observation to extract knowledge from nature, biology, and physics. Moral philosophy deals with morality and ethics; what’s right and wrong and being established by a standard that is not left up to each individual. Metaphysical philosophy deals with the first principles of ontology (study of being), cosmology (study of the universe as an orderly system), and its intimate connection to epistemology (study of knowledge). Philosophy brings a new and special tool to discovering one’s history.

Another piece of the three-pronged tools is theology. Theology is defined as the following according to dictionary.com; the field of study and analysis that treats God and God’s attributes and relations to the universe; the study of divine things or religious truth; divinity. Now again, before you leave my page, and never come back, and label me, hear me out. The study of theology gives the person a view of the spiritual realm. We have never understood that understanding and having the best understanding of the spirit realm can give an edge to the mentality that enhances the existence of the person who endeavors to possess it. Have the grandest exposure to the spirit realm, with the best source that yields the recipient access to divine truth, the divine realm and its reality, and the ability to understand the pros and cons of the spirit realm. This is not something that is taught in grade school, most parents have not taught it to their children after a certain century. So, in this case what is not known is detrimental to the existence of those that lack understanding or even have a desire to know.

The last piece of the tool is science. What is a good definition for science, we will head back to dictionary.com;

1. a branch of knowledge or study dealing with a body of facts or truths systematically arranged and showing the operation of general laws.
2. systematic knowledge of the physical or material world gained through observation and experimentation.

Through the study of or gaining an understanding of true science, you will get a systematic view of knowledge through a body of facts arranged and showing the operation of general laws. This gives the person the ability to observe their entire existence, their intellect, emotions, and volition, and why they are in the condition they are in both positive and negative. A close look at history family history and what has been influencing it in both a positive and negative way. With the study of knowledge, you’re able to harness your perspective to see a clearer picture.

The three-pronged tool grants access to the 360-degree perspective. The tool when implemented can plainly be said to change your mind, change the way you feel, change your decision-making, and force you to examine who you are, and whether are you being the truest, most authentic, and purposeful person you can be.
