Caring Too Much

Posted on June 11, 2023 by alithewriter • Leave a comment

A few years ago, I wrote a post about how nobody cares about the mortifying shit you’ve done in the past because everyone’s always going to be too focused on their own mortifying shit to care about yours. I wrote that post both as a reminder to myself and to anyone who struggles with being … Continue reading →

You’re a Weird One

Posted on April 4, 2023 by alithewriter • Leave a comment

Lately I’ve been thinking about what it truly means to be weird. In childhood, anyone who’s branded “the weird kid” is essentially a social outcast. Instead of having friends and a social life, the weird kid is typically a loner with really obscure interests, supposedly doomed for a life of solitude. But hey, at least … Continue reading →

Scam Victim

I was recently the victim of an elaborate scam. Criminals posing as government agents contacted me stating I was the victim of identity theft and that a warrant was out for my arrest due to accounts in my name committing money laundering and human trafficking in the amount of $5.6 million. I was instructed to … Continue reading →

Heartbroken and Sad. Here’s Hoping for Something Good

Posted on September 27, 2022 by alithewriter • Leave a comment

I’m really sad right now as I write this. I don’t want to have to write this, but when I feel things strongly I need to get the feelings out in writing. I’ve turned to writing my entire life. When I was younger, it was through keeping a journal. In recent years, it’s been through … Continue reading →

My Ongoing Struggle with Self-Esteem: An Uphill Climb to Confidence

Posted on January 25, 2021 by alithewriter • Leave a comment

I’ve been struggling with self-esteem my entire life. I know I’m certainly not alone with that struggle, but when you’re in your own head more often than you care to be, stuck in your seemingly endless cycle of negative thoughts, it can often feel like I’m alone in that struggle. I go through a fair … Continue reading →

Action, Self-Love and Focus for 2021

Posted on December 31, 2020 by alithewriter • Leave a comment

What a year. Obviously there’s no need for me to recap 2020. We’re still in this pandemic, but at least there’s been encouraging news about vaccines so we’re not totally doomed. My resolution for 2020 was all about optimism, specifically to be more positive and to let go of negative thinking. My resolution for 2021 … Continue reading →

Grappling with Meaning: A Reflection on the Final Season of BoJack Horseman

Posted on November 18, 2020 by alithewriter • Leave a comment

Spoilers through the BoJack Horseman series finale ahead. I think each and every BoJack Horseman fan would agree that when we sat down to watch the first episode of the show, we didn’t have the slightest idea what we’d actually be getting ourselves into. An insightful look into the human condition is one way to put … Continue reading →
