remember the time…

This is my blog post on last year’s anniversary of Michael’s passing. I was going to write something new, but I think this sums it all up…

I actually dreaded writing this post all week. I knew I was going to do something, but I wish it were under different circumstances. I wish I was trying my best to get tickets to see Michael Jackson live somewhere; instead I’m here writing a blog post about the one-year anniversary of his death.

It still doesn’t seem real, you know? Like the world played a huge trick on my spirit. This one hit me hard; when the news was announced that Michael was gone, I sat at this computer and screamed. My son came running, asking if I was alright. I couldn’t even tell him. I couldn’t say anything.

It’s hard to explain feeling like part of you is ripped away in response to the death of someone I didn’t know personally. But you see, I felt like I did. Michael Jackson was part of my life—a big part—and knowing that there is a void where he once shined makes me sad.

We will always have the music, though. May you continue to live on through the wealth of classic music that you have gifted to us.

R.I.P. Michael…
