Above all else, examine your day by how much it expands your ability to love, to understand, and to create. The tool by which you measure your moments will be the rulebook by which you create them.

A study published in the journal Neuron by researchers from the University of Toronto found that being forgetful can be a sign of high intelligence
The findings suggest that your memory optimizes decision-making by only remembering valuable information and forgetting unimportant details
In other words, your brain is better at separating what information is useful to you in the future. The study concludes that forgetting things is not just normal; it actually makes us smarter.

Life is about balance.
Celebrate your wins, yet remain humble.
Show resilience, yet allow room for vulnerability.
Set boundaries, yet accept people’s imperfections.
Pursue ambitions, yet cherish the simple moments.
Seek adventure, yet find contentment in stillness.

In the 14th century, Paris was a filthy city. There was no organized system for waste disposal, and people would often throw their waste out of their windows. As a result, the streets were filled with excrement, which attracted flies and other pests
The names of many streets come from the French word for "shit," merde, such as:
Rue Merdeux, "street of the shit," Rue Merdelet, "street of the little shit," Rue Merdusson, "street of the big shit," Rue des Merdons, "street of the turds," and Rue Merdiere, "street of the shithouse"
Despite the city's sanitation problems being severe enough to be reflected in its streetscapes as early as the 14th century, it wasn't until the 18th century that the city began to develop a more organized waste disposal system.

Adolf Hitler was convicted of High Treason in 1924, for which the penalty could have been death. The judges sentenced him to five years, holding sympathy for his 'patriotic' motives
Hitler was released after serving just nine months and became a dictator within eight years.
