People care about thought crimes, but not thought virtues. People often judge themselves and others unnecessarily harshly for having impure thoughts, but never praise others for wanting to do good things but not doing them/not being able to. Doesn’t seem very fair to me, it sucks how easy it is to latch on to bad thoughts and ideas, even when never acted upon. It’s a thing I’ve struggled with ever since I started being more self aware of my flaws, and this thought makes it a little easier to not give so much weight to my shitty thoughts
