Hello?...

Dear Baefamily, I must apologize for not having posted here on this blog for several months. I have had so many personal matters with which I have had to deal, and I also suffered a time of illness during which I was hospitalized twice within one month's time. I am much better now, so we won't talk about that. When I wasn't sick, I was working on something that I had mentioned in a previous blog posting, which I had said was a kind of dream of mine. I have been busy connecting my blogger BaeFamily with my other internet families; all through the 'magic' of Facebook. While I was busy doing this, I found that there are hundreds and hundreds of lovely BaeFamily members on FB. And not just Baesisters, but Baebrothers as well. they are all so kind and loving that I have grown to love them all very much. I now feel as though my Families truly reach around and embrace the whole world and me with it. I have never known that kind of love in all my life, but I am so very glad to be experiencing it now, when I am finally at a stage in my life where I can truly appreciate it, and all the people who have given it to me, and to each other. And the best part is that it is all because of one person who has that kind of love for everyone, and has helped us all find a kind of family affection which might never have been possible without his gentle influence. Our Charming Prince, BYJ, has helped us to build many bridges of love that really do span the globe, and he is the engineer who made the plan for their construction, with his selfless love for all mankind and his desire to have the largest Family in the world. But, I can't forget the willing and loving hearts of all our BaeFamily, who took that love he gave and helped spread it around the world. Thank you, Family, for being so kind and loving, and for taking up the dream of Our Prince, and sharing it with others, especially me. Love to all Family, everywhere. <3

To All The Mothers...

Hi, dear Family.

I would like to wish all of the Baesisters a Happy Mother's Day! It doesn't matter if someone is a mother or not; If you have children in your family who are so special to you, that you would do anything for them (nieces, nephews, small cousins, etc.) then you know about the kind of love we mothers have for our children, and you shouldn't be left out. Every good woman is a potential mother. Everyone of them has a lot of love to give, and should be respected for that reason. Have a happy day, sisters, everywhere. Love to all, Anna

                                                                                              
(Here is a special gift, from my own artwork, to all of the Baesisters. I hope everyone likes it.)                                                                                                    

Even Better...

Hi, dear Family.

Now I have something even better than the 'Dream High' production news about which to get excited. Our Charming Prince and his company are finally going to publish "A Journey to Discover The Beauty of Korea" in English! How I have waited to hear this news! Taiwan and China will also be getting translations of 'the book'! I am happy for the Family in all of these countries; especially my own. Canadian Family members will, of course, benefit indirectly from the American publishing, because they can order the book from here. So can all the Family in English-speaking countries around the world, such as England, Australia, New Zealand, Ireland and Scotland. And we can't forget about our Family in Europe, Mexico,  South America, and all of the world's island nations, because many of them also speak English, as a second language. I believe the English printing of "Beauty" will be as helpful to all these Family members as the Chinese printing will be to a large part of the Family in Asia. I am so thrilled for everyone of us who will finally get a chance to read our Dear Yong Joon-ssi's lovely book! Oh,oh!!! Can't wait, can't wait!!! (Feeling weak with excitement.) I think we should all help other family members in countries where the book is not being published, yet. I have made a promise to a certain Sister, to keep her posted about the release dates for the book, as soon as I know anything, myself. If I can help any other of the Baesisters in this way, they should certainly let me know, and I will gladly do my best for them.  After all, we are Family, aren't we? I truly believe that we are. Love to all Family everywhere. Please be well and take care. Anna

Happy, Happy...

Hi, Family.
I would like to wish every one of the Baesisters, around the world, a very Happy Easter! I want to thank all of the sisters who have been posting all those new, wonderful photos of our Charming Prince. without their help, some of us in the Family would not get to see pictures like these, nor to find out what is happening in Baeworld. I feel I owe you all so much for your thoughtfulness in sharing all the news of our Yong Joon-ssi with me, and the rest of our Family. I worry about everyone. Please take care of yourselves and be well.
Love to all Family everywhere. Anna

Two Things To Say...

Hi, Family.

Today, I would like to say two things to all of you. First of all, I wish to express my sincere sympathy to all of the Japanese sisters who were injured at the WLS Anime Finale event. My prayers are with all of our dear sisters, to soon make a full recovery from their injuries. Second, I would like to thank all of the Baesisters who have kept us posted about all of the happenings at this event, and hope that they will keep us informed about any news regarding our injured sisters. Love to all, Anna

Friendship...

Hi, dear Family,
Today I would like to talk about Friendship, and love for one's 'Family'; two things which more and more people seem to take for granted.
In recent years I have had so many people, who were supposed to be friends, who betrayed my trust in them. These people didn't seem to understand that friendships, like any other relationships in life, are partnerships. This means that, in order to maintain the relationship, each person involved needs to contribute 50% of the effort involved. Unfortunately, a lot of people are unwilling to do this. They seem to believe they can take and take from the friendship and never give anything in return. They have a kind of "You should be there for me, but I don't want to be there for you" mentality. This will not work, no matter the type of relationship to which it is applied; romance, marriage, family, or even co-workers and bosses. If we don't make an effort to meet the other person half way, the relationship won't survive. This includes friendships, of course.
On the other hand, I also have long-time friends who tend to give 100% effort to maintaining our friendships; they give and give and expect very little in return. I believe this is known as 'going above and beyond the call of duty' as a friend. I have a good deal of respect and love for these friends, because they make me want to contribute as much as possible to our relationships, making them become fifty/fifty in nature. They are people I will always love, and help in any way I can.  They are more like family than friends.
This brings me around to our BaeFamily. In the short, few months that I have been a Bae Yong Joon Family member, I have found a lot of love, and I have learned so much from our Charming Prince and his philosophy of "Humane Living". It has helped me to see not only the kind of person I was, but the kind of person I want to, and am trying to be. It's interesting how one person can have such a positive effect on the lives of so many other people. We Baesisters have come to a place, through the internet, where we have grown together as a family, and are strengthening the bonds we have made, through continuous contact by messages, photos, and videos which we share with all of the other Family. And we also welcome new family as they join us here on our blogsites. And, even though a great number of us have never met, and may never meet, we still share the same kinds of ideals that Bae Yong Joon had when he started this international Family of ours. I, for one, could not do less than share my love for our family and for BYJ with as many people as I can. I tell everyone who will listen about Yong joon ssi and our Family as often as I get the chance, which is pretty often, since I love to talk to people.
All of  this has only become possible through the efforts of one man, and his undying faith in the inherent goodness, kindness, and love of all mankind. Without his influence, I can honestly say I would not be writing this for all of our family, today. Kamsahamnida, Yong Joon ssi, just for being the wonderful kind of person you are! Love to all Family. Anna
