R.I.P. King Bhumibol (King Of Thailand)

The assumption that the love we have for our king is purely because we are under-educated and the failure to recognize his accomplishments, because you're stuck with his title, is superficial and pure ignorance in truths and dimensions of people and society of other cultures.

But that’s ok.

I’m not writing all this to beg you to love whom we love or even to respect him.

I understand if you do not understand our loyalty to him.

What I’m asking for is very simple: let us grieve.

You would see us cry. You would see us try to do things we believe are ways to repay his love and his hard work for us. You may not understand any of this and that’s ok. But, please, let us grieve. Be respectful to our loss.

If you don’t understand the concept of how losing our beloved King could be so painful, at least, I believe, you would be able to understand the pain of losing someone you genuinely love and respect; Can you?

It’s not too difficult, is it?

Your life will carry on as usual, even when you don’t talk about us. But our lives… our lives have changed and our hearts brokened.

Let us grieve, let us mourn, and let us do what we want to do. Stop attacking us, at least not at this time of mourning. Be respectful to this great loss.
