RE: Optimism at the End of the World #8 : Metaphors and how they "Make or Break" you. (Framing Part 2)
Excellent post.
For me the main benefit to learning a second language, finally, after rejecting the idea for all of my early life, was you get a second brain. And that's always handy.
Yes, a whole second brain, a second way of looking at things, a second way of experiencing and creating life.
And that is awesome.
If I could be of help on the Spanish learning channel let me know. I am super fluent, although you know how educated one must be to speak castellano in an educated way.
But I believe I have plenty to offer newcomers, although a shocking aussie accent, that impides conversation with low patience listeners sometimes.
Anyhow, impressive post dude, or awesome as you would say.
Exactly! You get a second brain. That's a great way to put it! I feel like a different person when I speak different languages. I think the different languages allowed me to really reach my true potential because I created myself in those other language and made a blueprint for who I wanted to be and then brought that person back to my native English self.
