bittersweet
Today was such a very emotional day today. I spent most of it glued to the TV, watching Michael Jackson's memorial. It really hit home for me, and while I didn't know Michael on a level that the last generation did, I truly loved him, and I am glad that I can say that I never stopped believing that he was a great man and a great musician, and an absolutely beautiful person.
Michael Jackson was a gift to the world. He changed so many peoples lives for the better and despite the bleek outlook, Michael never stopped believing that the world could be united with love and music, that it could be healed and we could all stand together as one.
Michael Jackson's favorite song was Charlie Chaplin's "Smile" Smile though your heart its aching, smile even though its breaking. What's the use in crying? That touched me so much. That even though the public berated him, put him down, and tried to make him less than what he was, he never stopped believing.
I cried. My heart poured out. We lost a great man. I know everyone has to go sometime, but that doesn't make this pain any harder. I felt like I lost a family member today, a friend, a mentor.
I cry with his daughter, Paris. I feel her pain, and I pray and hope from the bottom of my heart, that the higher spiritual entities, whatever, whoever, wherever they are, will watch over her and the rest of the family.
Excluding Joe Jackson, who beat Michael and who only used his sons death to promote his new Record Label, He didn't shed one tear, and Michael excluded him from his will for a reason. The only thing I could ever thank him for is for helping to bring Michael to the earth, but what he did to him while he was here is unforgivable.
...And out of nowhere, on the eve of this sad, sad day. Some joyful news
came...
AFI's 8th album, Crash Love has been officially confirmed to be released:
September 29th, 2009.
And though even that was not enough to completely lift my heavy heart, it did give me something to look forward to, and reminded me that life will just keep rollin' on. But I will not make Michael's wishes in vain, I will live my life to the fullest, with love. I will have fun and smile every day. And the scrutiny and hatred I may recieve in my life will never be that of what he dealt with.
I will never, ever forget you, Michael. You will live on in my heart, forever. I love you
Thank you for everything, Michael.
