In the year 4026, a book was found. A diary, dated all the way back to the year 2013, This diary was written by no one special. She never found the cure for cancer. Never became the first female president of the United States, or won a Nobel Peace Prize. She was average, and she showed the new world what life was like for people who lived normal lives way back when. And even though she was dead, she gave them knowledge that wouldn't have been obtained without them.
These are the diary entries that she had written so many years ago, and now it's your turn to read them.
