When most people hear “Tower of Babel,” they think of confusion, scattered languages, and a failed skyscraper project before concrete mixers even existed.

The world is spinning at breakneck speed and is filled with shortcut culture. We have a “what’s in it for me” attitudes, and headlines that read more like courtroom drama. It is it’s refreshing to revisit one of Benjamin Franklin’s most powerful virtues: Justice. Franklin defined justice simply but profoundly: “Wrong none by doing injuries […]
Most of us treat sleep like an optional feature in the video game of life. It’s something we’ll “catch up on later,” like organizing the garage or finally learning how to fold a fitted sheet.

We sure do have a lot of filters in this world—Instagram filters, resume filters, even personality filters—it’s tempting to play a version of ourselves that’s shinier than the truth.
