It has been a long time since I blogged and so much has happened. School has ended for me, we are moving along with our adoption process and I am looking forward to fun times this summer. But 12 days ago my world was shaken. My favorite entertainer in the world passed away of a heart attack possibly caused by medications that he was taking. I have ALWAYS been a Michael Jackson fan! Light skin, trials, wierd behavior, nothing has ever changed the way I felt about him. I was with him forever. Listening to Michael Jackson music has always been a norm for me. He is all over my mp3 player and I get a Michael fix several times a week. If you had asked me the day before he passed who my favorite singer was I would have instantly said Michael Jackson and those who know me know that as well!
My heart is so heavy because I was so excited about his upcoming concerts. I was hopeful that he would revive his career a bit with the concerts and maybe even give us one final album, but obviously his work was done.
Loving Michael hasn't always been easy. Many gave up on him because of his unconventional behavior but I am so happy that folks are remembering him for his music, dancing, and philanthropy. The music will live on and now happy memories of him will too.
I love you Michael. Rest in Peace.
