Who knew that he suffered so much and yet he managed to hide them through his bright and jovial nature.  I was recommended by youtube and when I heard the song, it has such a beautiful melody to it and not until I saw this translated version.  Looking at how passionate he was with this song and only knowing about this song especially after his passing, in a way I felt some of his anguish and heartache; and how much he yearned to be loved and listened to.😢😢 I have seen his rendition of the same song when he first debuted back in 2008 but it was nothing like this.   😭😢

I was totally surprised when I read the news of his tragic demise last night.  Am not a fan of Shinee but he was gone too soon at 27 years old.    I first saw him in We Got Married (one of the variety program in South Korea) when one of the member "married" another member from the group Apink.  He seems bright and cheerful and always seem to be the happiest. The happiest always seem to suffer the most.  I began to watch some of their videos and listening to their songs.  He is such a super talented artist but it seems that he was battling depression badly which lead to his death yesterday. Whatever it is, I hoped he did find his peace finally.  You are like a candle lighting the others whereas you are actually suffering deeply. Good people like Jong Hyun are like candles, they burn themselves up to give others light.  RIP Jong Hyun, you can finally rest now.   Credit to the owner of the YT.   

Once upon a time, many moons ago I came across this particular song and I sort of fell in love with the melody and when I knew the meaning of the song, it is really a tragic song but the melody is calming.  Anyway,  I wanted to listen this beautiful ballad.

Its coming to the end of 2017 and still missing the lovebirds. Somehow, I was free the last few weeks to watch the complete episodes and ya, they seem real though.  Wishing that their ship is sailing.

Today I am officially 49 years, another step to reach 50. Hmmmmmm..... Honestly, I don't feel that old but the body seemed to fail me now.  Can't say much huh!..hehehe   Anyway, I have been getting birthday wishes since midnight, happy for all those thought from friends all over.  Looking back over the years, I have been through a lot of struggle. I learned a lot throughout those struggles and has learn to accept things as they are and to always have a positive thinking.  Its not easy but I found it to be working lately.  You will always have to fight and beat your own demon within you no matter, that itself is already a huge battle you have to face everytime you need to decide on something that is crucial in your life. Enough of ranting for the day.  Happy birhday to me, happy birthday to me, happy birthday to me.
