Inspired I have written a text that I would like to share with you. It is my first time ever to post something like this. There was a time when I felt lost. A time when I didn't know who I was, what I liked, or where I belonged. When I didn't know if I deserved it. That was a difficult time for me. When you lose yourself and don't know where to start. Life goes on, but you are left behind. Time passes without you even noticing. There was a time of ignorance when I ignored my feelings and just wanted to carry on. A time when I didn't want to feel anything, but somehow did anyway. When I couldn't cry, even though I wanted to. During that time, I forced myself. If you can't cry, you have to force yourself, otherwise it suffocates you. Life goes on, but your own progress doesn't. Time passes without you noticing. There was a time when I carried on without a goal. A time when I wanted to change everything but didn't know how. When I didn't know if I deserved it. During that time, I wasn't there for myself. When you carry on without taking care of yourself. Life goes on, but your situation remains the same. Time passes without you even noticing. There was a time when I realized that things couldn't go on like this. A time when I began to understand that something had to change. When something had already changed without me noticing. During that time, someone was there for me. When you're surrounded by people who bring you back. Life goes on, and so do you. Time passes, and suddenly you notice it. There was a time when I came back to myself. A time when I found myself again. When I became my former self again. During that time, I realized that time had changed everything. If you give yourself time to grow and process things. Life goes on and you're back in the thick of it. Time passes and you change for the better. It is a time when I know again what I have. A time when many things have helped me and are still there. When music has been by my side in a way it hasn't been for a long time. During this time, I am feeling well again and I know what helps me. When I can rely on you and you are there for me. Life goes on, and thanks to you, I have hope within me. Time passes, and you are by my side. Thank you for giving me time and allowing me to find myself. The cheerful self that can enjoy everything. The happy me, who still has a lot of work to do, but has made huge progress. Thank you for helping me, consciously and unconsciously. I am also particularly grateful to music. It found me and pulled me out of the dark without me even noticing. Thank you for saving me and making me who I am today. Happy! Thank you to my family. Thank you to my friends. Thank you to my 8teez. It is your music that brought me back. Please take care of yourselves and stay as you are, because you are perfect just the way you are. #ateez #hongjoong #seonghwa #yunho #yeosang #san #mingi #wooyoung #jongho It‘s still raw.
