I always liked Michael Jackson. I cant say I followed his every move, but I always enjoyed his music and thought he was the most amazing dancer. I remember the day Michael died, my family and I were on our way back from a trip we were on. I heard on the radio that Michael Jackson was in cardiac arrest. I was in shock because I was almost the same age as he was and I thought he had a heart attack. After we got home, it was all over the news that Michael had died. I think for a couple of days after that I was just in shock. I just did not know what to think or what to feel. Never in a million years would I ever imagine that a person that I never knew affect me the way Michael's passing has. This whole thing has been so surreal and I have experienced so much sorow and pain since his passing. I dont understand it but I feel like I have lost a family member or a best friend. I always knew Michael was amazing but the more I found out about him the more love I felt for him. I'm not talking about the musical genius he was but the kind of person he was. His love, kindness. and compassion for others really hit my soul. It made me take a good look at my own life and appreciate the people around me. I started to realize that we only have one life and we should appreciate each day and love others. I also think his death really made me realize that I'm growing older and he was so much apart of my era, my childhood and teenage years. I have cried so many tears and have felt so much sadness. No matter how hard I try, Michael is always on my mind and I feel like a piece of me is missing. Its terrible to feel alone about this because no one around you understands. I dont express my feelings to my husband because I think he would think I'm nuts.
So I'm glad I have this site to share my feelings and hopefully make some new friends. I just joined so I'm learning how to use this site. I'm excited about being able to talk to people that feel the same as I do.
