For those who have worked hard on work or on studying all day, I wanted everyone to listen to this song at the end of a day. And I wanted to tell you that, ‘We are the pride of each other’. We’ve never even seen each other face to face, but yet we can relate to each other and share our feelings, so I think we can also maintain… build the relationship, that we can understand each other. Not knowing the face of each other doesn’t mean that we have no relationship. So listening to my voice, 'You are my pride’, keeping that in your mind… Live a life with confidence. — Jonghyun, 하루 끝의 V LIVE (source: Magic Marshmallow)

You are my inspiration. You are my everything. You are my pride.

I am so proud of you, your work ethic, your character, your heart, your everything. You've done so much good for this world, and that will be continued through every person you inspired and touched. You are, and forever will be, my pride. Nothing will change that.

I read this in a book: “here lies the great poet; he couldn’t write a single line of a poem. here lies the great general; he couldn’t get a chance to form his troops. here lies the great inventor; all his ideas for inventions were inside his head.” this all means you cannot achieve anything just by thinking, right? we’re not all poets, generals or inventors but, most of the days, we’re not able to achieve half of half of the things we’ve thought of doing. we don’t even need to look further. just by looking at today: what were you thinking of doing today? did your accomplish all of those things? did you not do them by making (up) excuses such as: you can do it tomorrow or you were busy or it wasn’t important? isn’t it sad to have all your ideas just in your head and not being able to turn them into reality? you need to actually put them into action, right? — Blue Night, April 1st 2016 (source: thatcoolcatmeow)

Remember SHINee is always one. — Jonghyun, Hashtag (1theK)

Although you are now with the stars, you will always and forever be with us. You continue to live on in the lives you have touched, inspired, and saved, and I know that although you may not physically be there, you will always be on that stage with your brothers. SHINee will always and forever be five, and nothing will ever change that.

Let’s see each other again. We’ll soon meet again. You know I too lie quite a bit but when it comes to important things I can’t lie. That’s why my heart is sincere right now. We’ll see each other again. — Kim Jonghyun (source: fantaemsie)

Though you may no longer be with me now, I hope we can see each other again in the future. Until then, see you later.

You’ve worked hard, pat pat. Do everything to your heart’s content. Even if that thing is crying, it’s okay. Although it’s such a trivial compensation for the time you spent worrying, enjoy to your heart’s content the ‘leisure’ that you haven’t been able to enjoy. Sleep in and watch dramas that you heard are fun lately. Look for concerts to watch and feel the slightly chilly wind. Eat a lot of delicious food that will lift your spirits and look up at the sky absent-mindedly sometimes. Little by little, it’s time to broaden the world that was full of tests. You only looked and ran toward one place as if you were blindfolded. But ironically, it may be that today is a good day because you’ve earned the leisure to meet broader things. — Kim Jonghyun, Twitter (source: shiningtweets)

You've worked hard. Rest well, sweet one. You deserve it.

Blue Night is broadcasted at a late time right. It’s late and you can’t contact your friend. You feel insecure right? At this time I’d be here to listen to you, no matter how late it is, no matter how long it is. — Blue Night, September 22nd 2015 (source: thatcoolcatmeow)

Jjong-D, are you listening now when I talk to the moon?

When doubts arise within myself, when I get thoughts like, ‘Am I really doing well?’ 'Are the things I’m doing right now correct?’ I like to lift my own confidence by saying, 'You’re doing great right now’ and 'You will do great in the future’ — Blue Night, February 5th 2014 (source: Bluenight0525)

S T A R S

In one of those stars I shall be living. In one of them I shall be laughing. And so it will be as if all the stars were laughing, when you look at the sky at night...You, only you, will have stars that can laugh! And when your sorrow is comforted (time soothes all sorrows) you will be content that you have known me. You will always be my friend....I shall not leave you. — Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, The Little Prince

The reality is that you will grieve forever. You will not 'get over' the loss of a loved one; you will learn to live with it. You will heal and you will rebuild yourself around the loss you have suffered. You will be whole again but, you will never be the same. Nor should you be the same, nor would you want to. — Elizabeth Kubler-Ross & John Kessler

This project began as a way for me to cope with the loss of someone I deeply admired and cared for. Like many of us, I didn't know him personally but I cared for the parts he was gracious enough to show us and when he left, I didn't know how to put myself back together. So for the past 52 weeks, I gave myself the time to be with Kim Jonghyun and relearn who this wonderful man was. To remember his words, his smile, his voice, his laughter, his everything. He taught me the importance of love, kindness, forgiveness, and empathy, but along the way, I also learned a great deal about myself. He taught me that I was capable of more than what I expected and to be kind with myself when I made mistakes because life does get better. He gave me the strength to carry on. To laugh, to cry, and most importantly, to see his face and remember how he lived and not how he left.

52 weeks of edits.

52 weeks of growth.

52 weeks of tears, love, and acceptance.

And although this may be the last letter, this will not be the last of Kim Jonghyun, because I will continue to carry him with me for the rest of my life. I may no longer be broken, but I am different, and I am okay. You will be okay too. You have the strength and he believes in you.

Thank you for all the support, kindness, and patience. A special thanks to supernoona for allowing me to use and edit her photos, and thingsthathavebeensetfree and wordsbyjjong for being a great source of quotes. Please check them out as they are wonderful shawols, blingers, and human beings. I hope you all have a wonderful new year. You deserve it and do not accept anything less.

Right now, for several reasons, I said goodbye for a while, however, I think I certainly will come back again. A day of sharing each other’s everyday life and having a pleasant talk. Until that day, please remember a lot of stories. Don’t forget the minor everyday life details that slide by. And then, later on to me, be sure to tell me about them. — The Agit: The Letter, Chapter Two: If my heart reaches you (source: Bluenight0525)

You’ve worked hard. You’ve really gone through a lot. Thank you and goodbye.

I'm sorry we couldn't give you the world you deserved. But I hope in those moments of fear and darkness, we were still able to give you some comfort. Please be at peace now and enjoy singing in the stars, sweet angel. I love you & I miss you.
