We live in a world where people make money just by making their life look fab. We want to show the world that we’re awesome too, and that we measure up (we really do).

But you really shouldn’t be just listening to me and doing what I suggest. Let me explain.
What will our new tagline be?
Why hello, and welcome back to the Thoughts that Bind. Now last time, we covered our tagline, “In pursuit of a better life”. If you haven’t read that post yet, I suggest that you do, because this one will be based on that.

Ever since the beginning of this blog, I’ve considered only one tagline: in pursuit of a better life. I plastered it on my site, even put it on a t-shirt. But now I’m starting to think maybe it’s time for a change. Let me explain.
