You asked about a favorite Disney Ride. Your Pirates suggestion is indeed great, but I like Thunder Mountain better. I've also dared to go on the Indiana Jones ride, and that one is great too, especially with the small looping, which you don't see on the outside.
I've been on Space Mountain once, and have never dared again. I think my favorite one is the Indiana Jones one. I love the way they executed the theme.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
