“To think is to confide in the openness of being.”
— Martin Heidegger

Simplified Meaning:
When you think, you are trusting the world to be open to new ideas. Imagine being in a room where you can say anything without judgment. Thinking is like that; it means you believe that there is space for your thoughts and ideas to grow. Just as a garden needs sunlight and air to thrive, your thoughts need an open mind and environment to develop. Historical thinkers like Galileo or Einstein trusted that their new ideas would find a place in the world, even if others doubted them at first. By being open and trusting in your own thinking, you allow yourself to explore, learn, and create without fear.
