“Make not your thoughts your prisons.” – Antony and Cleopatra

I think of this quote every time I have to listen to one of my colleagues spout his crazy theories during lunch.  Untested theories are all well and good, but they become prisons when you absolutely refuse to broach criticism of them or accept alternate perspectives that might challenge them.

But lately this quote has come to mean something more to me.  Some days I just can’t get past my own annoyance at the world, and that in itself then frustrates me more!  Ha!  I wish sometimes I could just let things go already…  let stupid thoughts just escape the prison of my mind and disappear…
