In a new study, MCW researchers pinpointed which region of the brain helps us visualize our memories. The researchers hope their research approach could be extended to people who have difficulty finding words to express their thoughts and memories. Learn more: www.mcw.edu/mcwknowledge...

“Kindness is in our power, even when fondness is not.” Samuel Johnson We don’t have to agree with someone…. blowing out someone else’s candle doesn’t make ours shine any brighter. Be gentle. Be kind. Be an encourager. #Kindness Artwork by joyfulsmolthings
Green illustrated background with small pale green dots and highlights. On the left is a large cream-coloured candle with a smiling face, closed eyes and pink cheeks. An orange flame with a darker orange centre burns above it, with two small yellow sparkles alongside.

Large hand-drawn black text across the image reads: “Blowing out someone else’s candle doesn’t make yours shine any brighter.”

The words sit over lighter green brushstroke-style highlights. The artist’s name, @joyfulsmolthings, appears vertically on the left-hand side of the candle.
