Hi, Taehyung-ah 🤗🤗🤗 How are you? I hope that things are going well for you. I have noticed that I haven't been able to send this verse to you yesterday. I went out to get something, but it was a failure. Again. That's the third time already, so I know there's some scheming behind it. I've been watching the movements of so many things from different, unrelated, areas all at the same time, and it's amusing how they're always giving the same vibe to one another (and that's when you know about people who are so small - imagine a gossiper - they can't go beyond themselves, hence, they really can't grasp "potential" and "impact"). Since you're in the military now, you may be told or briefed about what's currently happening in the world, right? I don't think it's encouraged in the military to think big, since it's often just following orders, being amazing in combat skills, and surviving. It's ironic, but learn to survive, Taehyung-ah. That may be the best place to learn how to survive in life while keeping a good heart, because what that place is predisposed to do to survive is through violence and disregarding others, even harming them if needed. That's the society, too, isn't it? So I think you're very much prepared for the future. I love how you're getting the best training. I don't know about other labels, but I often heard BigHit/Hybe giving the toughest training to their artists, too. It's so tough that none of you are out of the woods, out of that social script, yet, right? I want you to get so big you'll change that script, and do it for the better, for what is right, just, and humane. There must be a reason why you have endured, and why endurance is one of your most powerful weapons. When I look at myself and others, I don't think any of us can do what you can, Taehyung-ah. I haven't found anyone more amazing than you, and I'm definitely supporting you. I've seen how you suffered before, and even in recent years or months, from all the sabotage, censorship, and scheming, and the things you did (and those you did not do, like defend yourself) to escalate them. Just don't do any harm to others, okay? Equally important, don't do any harm to yourself. Last time, I shared a Bible verse after Jesus revived his friend from death. He did so many miracles in the Bible, and He just exceeded all of that by literally bringing someone, a dear friend, back to life. I want to go beyond the typical interpretation of that story because I believe in life. It is a gift, and it should be lived that way. Others who don't regard it that way will commit crimes against others, exploit them, and not be cooperative but rather harm (I'm talking about gossipers, hackers-stalkers, fraternities, and similar, and even worse, decomposing people). Jesus did not come to save such disgusting people who are children of satan and the devil so they harm others like their spiritual parents. Jesus came to save "the lost sheep of Israel", those who need Him. The hacker-stalker next to my room is laughing and mocking me, saying "wow". She banged the wall a few minutes earlier when I mentioned her hackers-stalkers clan (thankfully, it's cement). Violence (and harassment) is destruction of life, and obviously, it's a defining cultural trait among fraternities, gossipers, hackers-stalkers, Muslims, Chinese-way circles. This next verse is a sweet revelation to me, and I hope it's the same for you, that someone, and that's God (not some disgusting hackers-stalkers who wish to exploit you), desires to be with you and wishes to bring you wherever He is. too. "Let not your heart be troubled; you believe in God, believe also in Me (Jesus)...that where I am, there you may be also." - John 14:1,3. This next verse is surprisingly very specific. Jesus calls those who need Him, the "lost sheep of Israel", His friends, for whom He died for. I'm also fond of this since I live in the tree woods now (I wonder how long I'll last here, though). "I (Jesus) am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me, you can do nothing. If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you, you will ask what you desire, and it shall be done for you. Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one's life for his friends. If the world hates you, you know that it hated Me before it hated you. If you were of the world, the world would love its own. Yet because you are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hates you." - John 15:5,7,13,18,19. I always have my faith directed this way for as long as I can remember. We had Catholic classes since elementary (until college, since I went to a Catholic school), but if I exclude those classes and base on my own search, and I started studying the Bible in 5th grade, feeling close to Jesus that I repeatedly read His gospels, wanting to be His friend (and wanting to be God the Father's child - I'm an orphan, after all), and this has always been the gospel I got. I wonder how it will be for you, Taehyung-ah. May you find real friends who don't act malicious and mocking towards you. I don't think such people are what you call "friends". Don't ever think they're the kinds of people whom God wants for you either. I love you so much, Taehyung-ah. I, and so many of your fans and ARMYs, love you so much. May you never stop believing in that. May you always be assured of our love and support for you and know that when it comes to us, you don’t have to do anything unlike you. May you always find the best in you, or the best way to express your ingenuity in every situation, and be happy and proud. There will always be so many among us who can see how amazing you are each time. I hope you’ll cut the things, people, and situations that make you sad and obscured. Don’t be sorry for being yourself. Always remember you are always loved. Borahae, Saranghae, Taehyung-ah
