You probably don't recognize me off the forums since I haven't been here since 2007.
Like the rest of you, I am incredibly sad and depressed. I decided to return to a forum that I had unfortunately long-forgotten because I knew that there I would find people that I could turn to, who shared the same thoughts that are going through my head.
I have only now realized that the last few years, I have been missing something that had brought me so much joy in high school. My passion for MJ was buried underneath the stress of university life, and only now I realized how much I've missed him.
I am unbelievably sad that I'll never meet him, or even see him. His death seemed so surreal, and only today, after having attended a tribute to him last night, does it really seem to sink in.
I want to say thanks for providing me with a place where I can talk about this. A lot of people wouldn't understand why one would cry at the death of a person they had never met. :'(

well done for sharing x
No, I didn't stop thinking about him. I want to make it very clear that I never stopped being a fan. I was here before and during the trials, sent prayers and emails of support through fan sites, and let EVERYONE I knew know that he had been acquitted.
I am only trying to say that since I never posted on the forums since 2007, I haven't had anyone to share my "MJ love" with. I don't recall why I stopped posting -- I got busy with the start of university, I guess. But just because one isn't on MJJC does not mean that one isn't a fan.
After the death of MJ, it took me a couple of hours to sink in because I couldn't believe it -- it didn't seem possible. It took me a couple of days to realize that I really needed to talk to somebody about it, but who? None of my friends would really understand, no matter how much they knew I was a fan. Hence, the reason I came back here -- you all would understand how I feel.
