Hello, and welcome back to The Thoughts that Bind! This post is really going to be a general post, which I think is fitting given the topic at hand. But luckily, it’s something that we all can relate to. And that’s the idea that you’re never really going to be done with this life-learning thing.

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!

These skills are incredibly important when it comes to being able to live a life that you’re proud of. But at some point, it all falls flat. Because it’s not the be-all, end-all for life. And today, I want to talk about the other side of that coin.

Hello, and welcome to the Thoughts that Bind. If you’ve been following us for a while, then welcome back!
Today, we’re going to be talking about a very important question. And while I think it’s important to mention that it has no specific correct answer, there are very many points to be discussed when thinking this over. So remember as you’re reading, this conversation is one of nuance and opinion, not of objective correctness. With that in mind, let’s dig in.

I hear so many people say that they feel like they have to be the strong one or they want to be strong for their loved ones when they’re having a hard time. Things like that. But I don’t think we take nearly enough time to reflect on what exactly that means.
