While Its Rains

Description

Life won’t always be sun and blue skies.

There will be rains, - from drizzles to storms.

There are those of us who choose face them and play in the rain - soaking in what they can while it lasts

There are those who find comfort by taking shelter under their blankets, and let the pitter patter wash away the noise.

There are those who dislike the rain, but find comfort knowing that it will end sooner or later and so close their eyes while they endure the darkness.

Jongdae had always loved the rain. Though it wasn’t always the case.

Foreword

Oftentimes we are told be like mountains in the face of storms, unmoving, steady. Most of us think, this means we have to be unbreakable. That we can’t be weak.

Struck by the song of Regine Velasquez- Tuwing Umuulan (While it’s Raining), and in light of recent events...especially the passing of a valiant warrior, who was a friend to many and a role model to many more.

I will always pray for your peace, Kim Jonghyun.

Chapter 1: Thank you for writing this :) sorry it took a while for me to comment. I tend to sit on my thoughts for very long before I write it down. I read this a couple of my times, because I keep getting distracted by the images you put in my head. I could hear the rain, and picture our Jongdae, having one of those days whereby he needs the sun. But he ain't alone, for his friend is with him when it rains. It is such a thoughtful piece, after everything that had happened recently. Such a gentle reminder about being okay to cry, after all, it is not weak to be weak at all. So glad to have this story over this holiday period. Thank you for sharing this gift.
