When I read Meditations by Marcus Aurelius, the book was written in second person point of view (using you/your vs I/my or they/theirs).

It sounded like the former emperor was talking directly to me, but later I found he was writing to himself. He never intended for his works to be published.

With that in mind, it may be possible the blogger, Aaron Francis, in this case is also speaking to himself.
