  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! I’ve been thinking a lot about comparison lately, and I wanted to share my thoughts with you all. And so, I figured it would be nice to dig into this subject. Because as I’ve realized, it’s not as straightforward as we might think. 

Hello, and welcome back to The Thoughts that Bind. Today, we’re continuing the MissBekah Music series and talking about the meaning behind the song Human Nature. First, go listen to the song by clicking here (for YouTube) or here (to listen to it on SoundCloud). You can find the lyrics written below.

 Welcome back to The Thoughts That Bind! Today, we’re talking about the song Grow, in the second installment of the series “the meaning of MissBekah Music”. If you’d like to take a listen before reading what I have to say, you can find this song on YouTube by clicking here.

   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!

We talk a lot about making yourself proud. Making things easy on your future self, wondering what younger you would have thought about you now. And you know what? I think that overall, younger me would be pretty proud to see who I’ve become today, and who I am still working on becoming. But there are a few things that I know might make her confused, to say the least. 

      I’ve been working with senior citizens for a few years now, alongside many people who are also older than me. And I have recently stopped working with older adults, but they are still in my heart and in my head. I have seen similarities and differences between myself and my elders highlighted. And it’s left me with a lot of love for them. However, I also have a lot to say. So today, I just wanted to write down my thoughts. If you are someone who is of an older generation, know that I’m also writing to you. (In a vague and generalized way.) I hope you will take time to read my thoughts, as I have taken a long time to piece them together.
