Dear Ariana,
I'm going to try to keep this short...
I'm not very familiar with your music. That being said, I don't need to be familiar with your music to know your name and that you are a chart-busting performing artist. Consequently, you draw crowds of young people to your shows because you inspire them. You give their young worlds a soundtrack -and that's a wonderful and beautiful thing.
I can't imagine the emotions you are experiencing right now with the aftermath of the explosions at your show in Manchester.
I can't express how my heart sank when I heard the news.
I also can't express to you how much this is not your fault.
Terrible things happen sometimes with no rhyme, reason, or ways to prevent them.
Know that your fans still love you.
Know that your fans don't blame you.
Lastly, I pray that you don't blame yourself.
Sending love to you and your fans,
-T.
Healing will be a process, but remember that you're never alone along the way.
God is our refuge and strength
A very present help in trouble.
Ps 46:1
Blessed are those who mourn
for they shall be comforted.
Mt 5:4
"...In the world you have tribulation
but take courage; I have overcome the world" -Jesus
Jn 16:33
