The mind must be given relaxation; it will arise better and keener after resting. As rich fields must not be forced-for their productiveness, the have no rest, will quickly exhaust them constantlabor will break the vigor of the mind, but if it is released and relaxed a little while, it will recover its powers

Random CSS Property

scroll-padding-block-start

The scroll-padding-block-start property defines offsets for the start edge in the block dimension of the optimal viewing region of the scrollport: the region used as the target region for placing things in view of the user. This allows the author to exclude regions of the scrollport that are obscured by other content (such as fixed-positioned toolbars or sidebars) or to put more breathing room between a targeted element and the edges of the scrollport.
