Living life as it comes
Hello and welcome back to the Thoughts that Bind. Now, today we’re going to talk about a concept that many of us already know. I think we all need a reminder from time to time, especially when things get rough. So today, I want to sit you down, especially if you’re feeling frazzled and say “it’s okay, I’m here for you. I’m fact, it’s more than okay. This is actually good.”

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.

I’ve heard some references to Mother Theresa over the years about how if you want to make a change in the world, you need to stop putting your efforts into what you’re against and start putting efforts and energy into what you’re for. (Or something to that effect.) And while I don’t put her up on a pedestal as the best example of a “good human”, I definitely think she had a point there.

Hello, and welcome back to the Thoughts that Bind. We talk so much about our thoughts on this site, as you can probably imagine. But I feel we don’t talk nearly enough about where they come from. And so today, I want to talk about stories. Because these stories have a tendency to make up who we are, or who we might think we are. So let’s get into it.

Over the years we’ve talked about being a good person, being honest, and making and keeping our personal boundaries. And I suppose this conversation is an offshoot of that—nothing groundbreaking.

Hello everyone, and welcome back to the Thoughts that Bind. I’ve been reading a lot more lately, and that’s made me reflect on all the times in my life when I was reading vs. when I simply couldn’t manage.

Lately I’ve been noticing a lot of change around me, in the world and within people that I know and care about. Some of it’s positive, and some I may be inclined to classify as negative, but if I’m being honest, most of it’s just neutral. And of course, as with most things that are just neutral, there is a lot to be examined. So let’s jump in and talk about it!
