Living life as it comes
Today I realized how much of my time I’m wasting chasing goals that I feel like I should be doing. Don’t get me wrong, it’s not like they’re not good goals or anything, but I just don’t think they’re mine anymore.

Hello and welcome back to the Thoughts that Bind. And if you’re new, welcome! I hope you enjoy your time here and consider subscribing to the blog. Recently, I’ve been through some big changes in my life. And one of them includes learning a new language. For the past year (plus a few months), I have been making my way towards becoming bilingual. And at first it seemed more like something I had to do. But the more that I’ve learned, the more I’ve noticed some benefits. This made me curious, and I decided to look into what science and the internet had to say about the matter.
As it turns out, learning a language is super good for you and your life! And so today, I really wanted to just talk to you all. About what I’ve noticed, what I’ve learned, and really just encourage you. If you’ve ever wanted to try learning a language (or even if you’ve never thought of it before), to give it a try!

Hello, and welcome back to the Thoughts that Bind. And if you’re new here, welcome. Now, as you may or may not know, I’m Rebekah. And other than keeping this website maintained, I also like to make music. Sometimes I like to use music to simply express myself, while other times the songs I make have more to do with how I see the world. I found that there was some overlap with things I wanted to say to my readers here, and in my music. And so, I decided to begin a series wherein I talk about certain songs and the viewpoint that informs them.

Hello, and welcome back to the Thoughts that Bind. And if you’re new, welcome! Great to have you. I talk a lot on this site about how to improve your life, and things that I learn and observe along the way. It’s true, on this site, we love introspection! And I was feeling introspective earlier. Instead of writing a letter to my past self or working it out in my journal, I realized there are a few quick things that I wanted to share with my readers. Things that I wish I would’ve learned sooner, so that you can avoid having to learn the long, hard way. So this one will be a bit of a shorter post today, but I hope you enjoy all the same. Let’s get started!
