to ateez: goodmorning! i hope you have all been able to get lots of rest and good sleep, and i hope the day ahead of you proceeds as calmly without stress as possible. in the middle of so much going on, i was hoping that by sharing some healing energy with you, it could help brighten your day. there's a friend who grows outside the room i'm staying in, a friend who has been growing steadily with me for longer than my current life. as a child, i used to try and climb this tree, only to the lower branch, but it was a quiet spot that felt safe. when i moved back here over six years ago, i was shocked to see how much bigger this tree friend was. pictures fail to convey it, though i tried. the very friend who watched over and protected me for so many years now lives as a home to more friends. the hollow in the upper branches even shelters a barred owl at times, whose call i hear closely at night. it's incredible to think of these silent guardians who carry the memory of the earth itself in bark and veins. the way they give so much to every life around them, even through the harshest storms. one tree, who now lives deeply in the earth again, even caught a lightning strike where it would have hit the house around this room. i think of that friend sometimes, of the other trees so many take for granted. they carry such a beautiful message of perseverance, love and strength. so today, i wanted to take a moment to honour that and hope it also gives you strength. around the yard, other plants and flowers keep spreading their cheer. the hydrangea is gradually growing back, the asters are in full bloom, and the spirea bushes are slowly unfurling all their delicate glory. may this piece of the earth today bring peace to your hearts as you work to bring peace in your own ways. take care well, stay healthy and keep safest. enjoy good food and remember vitamins. may all sleep bring only kindest dreams and deep rest. be patient and loving to you as you keep working so hard and doing your best moment by moment. you are all cared about and supported so much. sending you all of my love and light, healing and protecting energy, and i wish that the day in front of you treats you as a friend to be cherished. best wishes in all you do! fighting!! i love you all and hope this day brings you happiness. 💚🎶🐦☀️🌕✨️🍀☘️🌻 -ari #ateez #에이티즈 #hongjoong #홍중 #seonghwa #성화 #yunho #윤호 #yeosang #여상 #san #산 #mingi #민기 #wooyoung #우영 #jongho #종호 #ariatiny #larknotes
