Where Did All The Blogs Go?
Hey everyone!
As you may have noticed, the blog posts stop in 2021. But that is not to say I stopped writing blog posts–simply that I have now been writing exclusively over at my Patreon.
I know writing behind a paywall is frustrating, but this is how I see it: 1) I still create a lot of content for free over at my TikTok, and there are still about 6 years worth of essays to read on this site.

The Year of Dating Myself: How My Solo Tour Healed More Than Just My Heartbreak
by Abby Rosmarin (Goodreads Author) |

“Let me lay bare my soul
to show you’re not alone
in this naked rawness
- Vulnerable”
― No One Reads Poetry: A Collection of Poems

“I learned that, while rejection is the name of the game, I’m always going to be exactly what someone is looking for, eventually. Whether it is looks or personality, be it in the professional world or the dating world, what others have over me is irrelevant, because there’s always someone out there looking for an exact type of someone – a someone that I can completely fulfill. I’m not going to be everyone’s ideal, so focusing on the times I get passed over – be it the modeling industry or in real life – is a colossal waste of time.”

“I warned her that her lover is
the Picture of Dorian Gray
but
in reverse.
Instead of the portrait taking in
the ugliness
and sin
so he can be and
do
whatever he wants
Instead
he lets himself be ugly
so the image can stay
pristine
- Dorian Grey”

“But life is too short not to make a fool out of yourself from time to time. And sometimes you need to make an ass out of yourself, just to see what you are capable of doing next. Life isn’t just about pushing your limits and seeing what you’re made of in the face of adversity. Sometimes it’s about getting embarrassed and feeling humiliated and seeing where you can go from there.”

“We’re all looking for a bit of recognition, even if it’s the unconscious and hypocritical need for attention over the fact that we’re not publically seeking out attention.”

“Reality is never what you imagined it would be. Sometimes it’s better. Sometimes it’s worse. And sometimes it’s just different. It’s not worth wasting time and energy trying to predict how things are going to turn out. Just go with the flow and keep your eyes and ears peeled.”

“Hard work, determination, and talent are key for any successful venture. But sometimes you need that fourth ingredient: dumb luck. Luck can never replace hard work and talent, but sometimes it can win out over both.”
