not sure if anyone needs this.
i was in a temporary slump for the past few days too. but today, mark showed me something really valuable that i sometimes forget.
you're strong and brave enough when you make big decisions, or when you choose to prioritise yourself, or when you want to chase your dreams — the reason why you started everything. at the end of the day, idols and fans are all human too. we all have something that we really want to pursue.
its okay to run non stop for that, and its okay to pause and take a breather at times. and as we run towards with different goals, we cherish the memories, experiences, and friendships we’ve made along the way.
we can prioritise, give more love & respect to ourselves too.
a new or big change in our lives, or even goodbyes dont always have to be a bad thing. it could be a start to something better, something we learned along from the chapter before. and we never know, someday while opening new doors, we might encounter the same people that we've met before, but in a better version of ourselves, with a smile & no regrets.
its okay that everyday is not a flowery or happy day, or its feels heavy or even mundane, or there are days when you want to cry so hard. its okay that you cannot be here all the time & want to focus on your real life too.
even when you're struggling to get back up, or just moving forward, you are already doing your best for yourself.
be kind to the people you met in life, and above all, be kind to yourself first 🤍
Thank you for 10 wonderful years, our Mark Lee. I’ll treasure every moment, and I’m hoping for nothing but beautiful years ahead for you.. wherever life takes you, and whatever you choose to pursue ❤️🩹
i respect mark's decision bc sm entertainment is the worst company ever but i was waiting for that ilichil album and for them to be together again for so long that i cant help but feel sad, we didn't even have the chance to say goodbye to him as nct 127
manila still hasn’t seen 7dream as a whole please i cannot fucking do this please tell me this isn’t real we still haven’t seen them as a whole fuck what happened to 7dream in manila please please tell me this isn’t real
if this was truly mark’s decision and this is what he wants i will celebrate his freedom from that fuckass company. but like. fuck man ilichil will not be the same without him
i told myself over & over again that when my faves cleanly fulfilled their first debut contract... I will accept whatever they want to do after (be it renewal or go & pursue a different path) since they basically graduate... I WILL DO, but it always shocks me 🥺 *imma cri
