It may seem that our thoughts are free—that we can bask in the freedom of our own mind, to take for granted the liberty of conjuring any thought at any moment.

But the terrifying fact is that our thoughts come at an immense cost—perhaps even more so than our spoken words or actions. Indeed, our thoughts determine the color of our soul and the fabric of our information space; these things determine our perception. And if perception determines the quality of our lives, we must tirelessly remember that every thought is equally capable of beautifying or destroying our experience of it.
