“Hold sacred your capacity for understanding. For in it is all, that our ruling principle won't allow anything to enter that is either inconsistent with nature or with the constitution of a logical creature. It's what demands due diligence, care for others, and obedience to God.”
- Marcus Aurelius, Meditations, 3.9

The ability to think, understand and form judgments. The ability to reason is an important gift, and yet we fail to utilize our ability to the fullest.
Conclusion
We should be grateful for the blessing of reason. The gift provides us a method to become better. We can use the gift to change the circumstances for us and those around us. Our capacity to reason is a powerful capability that we must not squander.
