7 Reasons

#2020GlobalARMYSong

I honestly have nothing more to say but thank you and I love you.

It is quite hard to articulate how I feel as we celebrate our 7th anniversary together, but I do know that being an ARMY is something that I will never take for granted.

This song is a personal diary entry, a letter, and a promise. Why exactly do we keep walking with them? Why don’t we ever stop this?

I hope this song resonates and comforts you in ways that it has healed me.

We are living in a time where our differences seem to become barriers that prevent us from seeing the commonality of being humans. My greatest hope is that this song will be able to showcase just a fraction of the possibilities when people from different backgrounds, countries, race, age, gender identity, etc come together.

I hope you continue to stay safe and healthy and remember our 7 reasons for continuing this journey with Bangtan

All my love,

Gracie
