Don’t Worry

A Farewell

I'm not gonna say that depression is already in my past (hell i don't even know if i had/have depression) but these days I really feel good like the suicidal thoughts are now long gone, I kind of don't feel alone/lonely anymore, I don't feel hopeless/worthless anymore, I don't feel mentally (and physically) tired/drained anymore and these are all thanks to him, KPop and Kdrama in general. I found new hobbies and friends and specially I found out more about myself and just when the news about Jjong broke out when i was studying for an exam the next day, I suddenly couldn't bring myself to continue studying and I just kept staring at the screen trying to process if it was real or not or just a prank and all night I cried myself to sleep. I cried for 2 days and it was an exam week. I just couldn't really fathom that Jonghyun's dead y'know... it's just so sudden. Until now I still feel guilty because they saved us from these demons inside us yet we didn't even know that they were also slowly being swallow by them and unable to help.

I may not have been a big fan of yours but I have known you for 7 yrs already. I admire you not only because of your voice but because of how kind & caring you are to everybody (esp to your hoobaes) and how brave you are to always fight to what you know is right and how you're always open to what you're feeling and I'm sorry if we didn't know that it was this severe.

You did well Jonghyun, you've suffered a lot yet you've endured it all this long. You don't have to worry about the people you've left, you don't have to worry anymore Jonghyun. You've done enough. Please be in peace wherever you are. You will never be forgotten. You've left a great memory to us. You will always remain as the brave star, Dino jjong, Bling Bling, Jonghyun to us. We will always love and support you. Take care.

Trying to advertise this for the 18th but someone else is bidding really hard so I am running out of karma (already bought more for over 30dollars) so if you have some spare you are willing to donate, I would be really thankful.

I'm aware that it isn't December but I just thought of this post. December will never be easy for a lot of us. I'm more aware of my depression around that time. I just became an adult and the realization that a lot can change has finally hit me. I'm not sure how to feel. People within my family have died or are dying and it seems like the only thing I'm allowed to do is move on. I'm no longer given the luxury of grieving the way I had with Jonghyun. There are so many fond memories that I can go back to with Jjong but for them I only have memories. So much has happened these past few years and while I'm not completely okay I can say there's plenty of room where I've healed.

As year 6 approaches I want my fellow Shawols to know that healing is hardly a linear task. It's okay to not be ready but where you are there's always going to be SHINee.

And Dear Author thank you for keeping this space for all of us.

Thank you for keeping this space for us for so many years <3 This milestone hit me a lot harder than expected, but seeing this brought so much comfort. Miss you to the moon and back, Jonghyun <3

It’s been five years today and just a few days ago I turned 27, the age Jonghyun-ah was when we had to say goodbye to him. I have long since had to “become an adult” and learn what growing up means; yet every year I come back to this little space, and read some of the messages that people wrote for him, and think back to the letter I wrote at 22 and never shared with anyone. I think back to a memory of me looking at the full moon and talking to him for hours, telling him I missed him terribly. We still miss you, friend. I still remember you fondly. I still remember me at 17 dancing to Replay in my room. I’ll always cherish those memories of our Spring.



Author, I hope you have been doing well. Thank you so much for keeping this space running for so long, it brings comfort to some more than you’ll ever know.

Chapter 818: I just really paid attention to SHINee this August. Yet, when Jonghyun passed away four years ago, I felt sad that another beautiful and caring person chose to leave this place. In fact, I didn't want to listen to any SHINee songs then.
Now, watching SHINee's MVs, I feel like I have accepted what happened and hope that he is really happy now.

Time keeps moving on and I wonder why I can't just go back and fix things to when it was so peaceful. So much has happened in the last four years and it feels as though there's only SHINee left to comfort me. Jonghyun for so long I've written my letters to you and I couldn't this year because I couldn't find the strength or will to when I was feeling down. I haven't cried this much since I was a baby. I promised last year that I would tread the new year with caution and that didn't work out so great. There's more I wanna say but I just wish you knew how much I love you. Thank you for being born and sharing your light with the world. Sincerely I love you. 𝑰 𝒘𝒊𝒍𝒍 𝒂𝒍𝒘𝒂𝒚𝒔 𝒍𝒐𝒗𝒆 𝒚𝒐𝒖 ❤️

It’s been 4 years now and so it’s hard to believe that you left us, but I still do remember you as SHINee’s Blingbling Angel and as the brightest star that shines in the sky.

I used to feel so lonely after knowing that you left us, that I was listening to Lonely everyday for about a year, but now I just remind myself that you’re still with us, as the bright shining star watching over us from the night sky. ❤️
I will always love you.
