Most entries come in twos: the reflection, and the research it stands on. They were written together and they are meant to be read that way. Every entry also carries a mark; here is how to read it.

Everyone knows the odds. Everyone believes they are the exception. That belief is the mechanism, not a failure of character.

Time is not only something to manage. Five seconds, taken on purpose, turn a moment that would have passed into one you can find again.
Moments don't become memories on their own. Something has to mark them, and a five-second window is enough to do it.
