It spent all those years balanced on a narrow corbelled wall.

“Have patience with everything that remains unsolved in your heart. Try to love the questions themselves, like locked rooms and like books written in a foreign language. Do not now look for the answers. They cannot now be given to you because you could not live them. It is a question of experiencing everything. At present you need to live the question. Perhaps you will gradually, without even noticing it, find yourself experiencing the answer, some distant day.”
Rainer Maria Rilke, Letters to a Young Poet, 1902-1908.

What technology or tool did they possess in the second century AD to be able to carve this statue on the hardest types of marble with such amazing precision? This is not possible unless they have advanced technologies. Now, despite the claim of technology and progress, we do not see such sculpture at the present time, 
"The loneliest moment in someone’s life is when they are watching their whole world fall apart, and all they can do is stare blankly. It's not the shattering itself that breaks you—it’s the silence that follows, the quiet space where you realize there’s nothing left to salvage. And in that moment, you know that you’ll never be the same again. You’ll build something new, perhaps, but it will never be what you lost."
✍ F. Scott Fitzgerald, The Great Gatsby 
"I can wait for you, but I can't expect you to choose me." 
“Can you remember who you were,
before the world told you who
you should be.”

“I have come to the frightening conclusion that I am the decisive element. It is my personal approach that creates the climate. It is my daily mood that makes the weather. I possess tremendous power to make life miserable or joyous. I can be a tool of torture or an instrument of inspiration, I can humiliate or humor, hurt or heal. In all situations, it is my response that decides whether a crisis is escalated or de-escalated, and a person is humanized or de-humanized. If we treat people as they are, we make them worse. If we treat people as they ought to be, we help them become what they are capable of becoming.”
–Haim G. Ginott, Teacher and Child (1972)

You’re not serious
This soldier lies there forever
This is a medieval skull, covered with (chain mail). This soldier died in the Battle of Visby in 1361. The dead were soon buried in a mass grave along with their equipment and armor, making this a rich archaeological site. It is now in the Gotland Museum in Sweden 
When scientists were ranking animals, the warthog was in his holes so they ended up crowning the wrong guys.. king of the jungle title went to the lion and fastest went to the cheetah but both titles belong to the hog.
Third title for the warthog is for reverse parking. Dude can reverse into a hole in the middle of a high speed chase 😂🤣 acceleration from zero is like a race car and brakes are instant.. i think its time we crown the right champions with all fairness.. if a cheetah can chase a hog and fail to catch it then we have a new champion, the V16 bi-turbo 6.5L AMG engine 🤣 
You can die every day and still be alive. 
This is the biggest preserved poop of a person that has ever been found. It was worn by a sick Viking in the 9th century AD and is now worth $39,000"".
The big, "precious" poop is officially called the Lloyds Bank Coprolite. The word "coprolite" just means old manure. This log is thought to be the biggest ever written down. It is 1,200 years old.
The 8-inch-long and 2-inch-wide specimen was found in 1972 by construction workers in York, northwest England, while they were building a Lloyds TSB office. The area was once ruled by Norse warriors. Its name comes from the bank Lloyds Bank. 
Misery loves company. Don’t allow toxic people to make you feel bad for your purity 😩 
Sometimes letting go is the way to heal.
