Quarantine had put a strain on so many lives, not only mine, it shattered everyone else's throughout the world. No, the pandemic didn't spare anyone that it had in its sight and the world changed dramatically - threw everything into oblivion and just flipped this mortal coil into nothingness. Left an execrable consequence that no one had dared to even think about. It just came giving us little to no time to prepare for, come to terms with, or adjust to the things that this catastrophe brings. Not knowing what to expect, nor how to react thus overwhelming us at some point in time.

Days continue to pass by slowly and still images of a pebbly or sandy shore, pinnacles of large awe-inspiring mountains, the celestial sphere of wide blue yonder, and viridescent meadow complete with a sparkling winterbourne had crossed my mind. Not just once or twice, but for a million times as I dreamed of inhaling the crisp morning air that turns caressingly warm just before the sunset while I sit down, close my eyes, and feel the serendipity course to my existence.

Soothing combined strains of beauty, form, harmony, and expression of emotion blares loudly against my earbuds, and the whole world pauses once more while I recover hope, courage, and strength after a time of difficulty. Quarantine isn't the only thing that caused melancholy in my life, but also the eternal rest of a kind and a sweet old woman who happily boosts my self-esteem, who cheers me on whenever I drown myself in my depressing state, and impart pearls of wisdom for the purpose of maintaining life had also been the impenetrable affliction that I still carry in my heart. It's been two weeks since then, but the pain is still throbbing deep within and I don't know when this will cease to exist.

And through all of these, encountering Bangtan Sonyeondan's music became my happy accident, been healing my broken soul, offering comfort and support as I allow my thoughts to process and fall back into place. Their music had been a potent tonic in my pandemic life, and a coping mechanism from the loss of a loved one. Some moments, their soundtracks make me wander from the real world and vehicle my line of thinking into an alternate universe where only happiness, freedom, and fun continue to exist.

These boys had been my anchor, aside from my family who are going through the same pain as I am. Their ripples of loud laughter, unconsciously comedic side, messages of soft ameliorate, and throws of joy not only for their fandom but for the whole world - as RM said, "A sort of ray of light, a sip of sweet water."

And indeed, it was, it is, and will still be for me because they've been my source of euphoria.
