Oh my god??? This was so beautiful I have yet to finish high school and you have no idea how long I’ve been looking for advice like this. I’m almost in tears
Listen. This is TMI, but I just failed a class today and was contemplating deleting my newsletter already (bc how do I claim to be a writer and fail an ESSAY omfg) but your comment made me snap out of it, thank you so much for your kind words!! And take this from someone who had the worst time after graduating high school - it gets better, just not in the ways we expect!! Stay strong love🧡
that passage you quoted feels surreal, wow. no wonder this is one of my friend's favorite shows.
"My worldview collapsed once I understood that reaping the benefits of trauma is an illusion I made up because I couldn’t fathom the time ." yeah, we don't always do what might be considered the best for ourselves, we do what we can to deal with things, especially suffering. i'm happy to see you've gained a more hopeful view, yes, your potential doesn't have an expiration date, and doesn't need to come from suffering to be of any worth
the 'everything happens for a reason' fallacy is something i fall into in one too many aspects of my life. it's a bit twisted when you deep think it through.
have you ever watched 'the good place'? it doesn't sound as serious as bojak horseman but it tackles big and smaller life questions, mostly from philosophy. the way you write so captivatedly and your appreciation from your own show makes me feel like you might enjoy it. it's a bit silly (doesn't have talking cartoons but does feature a neither human nor robot being that knows everything), but to this day is one of my most beloved pieces of media
Oh absolutely, that scene really struck me! Diane is one of my favorite, and one of the most relatable characters. I hope you‘ll watch Bojack Horseman, too!
You‘re so right! I‘m also falling back into old thought patterns every now and then, but I‘m positive that we can overcome it step by step. It takes time! We don‘t need to be constantly productive to prove our worth.
Funny you ask - it‘s one of my favorite shows! I think I watched it in the same year as Bojack actually. Good observation, I really did enjoy its lessons and the philosophical questions (also I LOVE Chidi).
Thanks for your comment and engagement, it made me so happy!💌🌱
