Remembering Michael on June 25th

[CherubimII]

In case you were wondering. Yea, MJ LOVES THE ROSES!!!! :give_heart:

 

[Soundmind]

Thank you Michael for the huge positive influence you have on me. I love you so much.

 

[Bubs]

Sigh, time flies but it doesn't feel like 8 years - still missing Michael.

 

[SeriousEffect.]

Thanks Mike!

 

[MykalsBaby]

Michael you will forever be missed. There's no reason for me to be sad anymore, as I know that you're in a better place. I use this day as an opportunity to celebrate you, and will do so for many years to come! You're always in my heart, Michael!

 

[valeryjackson]

I have no words.. I just miss him and love him very very much.

Michael was a unique person, gifted with extraordinary talent, unmatched charisma and a big, loving heart. He had (and still has) the ability to touch people's souls and that is never going to stop, his legacy will always be alive and thriving.
I'm very moved by the large amounds of love he receives from the world 8 years after he passed. I think the force which kept him going through good and bad times was being loved by people. I am sure their response today would make him very happy.

Michael thank you for sharing your talents with us and for bringing positive energy to my life. I will always remember you.

It still hurts. Around this time was when I start getting the news. I turned to CNN just to hear something about Farrah's death (ironic at work when I the news flashed about Farrah, I told a co worker, there will be one more since Ed McMann died that Monday or Tuesday. I would have never thought it would be Michael) and that when I start hearing about MJ in the hospital. I laughed at first because I though it was a hoax due to the tour coming up. Then, it start getting serious, the Jermaine came on and said Michael had died. I lost it and my phone started ringing from friends and people who knew I loved Michael and they loved him as well. I went into shock and did not go to work the next day. I am still in shock and I was going to the show.

How this day effected my life!!! no words can explain

 

[Selene]

For the first time in 8 years, I haven't been dreading June 25th for months in advance.
I still miss you, but the pain is getting easier to deal with. Most of the time, I don't feel sadness or a hole in my chest. I feel glad and privileged I was able to share my time in Earth with you. I grew up with your music, your dance, your art and your message. I enjoyed all of that and I also feel I'm a better person because of you. That's big. There's many artists I admire, but no other had that kind of influence in my life, interests and personality.


I am currently devastated by the fires in Doñana and the greed of people that are threatening this and other spaces that should be better protected. I'm angry at the destruction of nature and loss of wildlife. You gave us a song that perfectly conveys that feeling and, to honour that, I thought it would be appropriate to include it here today : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XAi3VTSdTxU


Thank you, for everything. I love you Michael. ♥


A big hug to all the fans and everyone that is missing him today and every day.

It's hard to believe it's been eight years. Time flies by fast. Rest in peace, Michael.

I meant to post this 3 hours ago but I had problems trying to access to this section and didn't load, I don't know if you had the same issue. Anyways...

8 years have passed, the sadness and pain haven't gone away but at the the same time there is happiness and joy in my heart, I'm proud I could enjoy Michael's magic and genius almost 20 years before he left us. So many happy memories because of his songs, short films and live performances I have in all these 27 years that I can't thank him enough for all the love, all the joy Michael gave to the world. YOU ARE FOREVER, MICHAEL, so is my love for you! 👑LONG LIVE THE KING!👑 :heart:

I even made a screen shot of Michael being trending topic in Mexico but I saved it on my laptop and now I'm posting on my phone.

Adorable-when you click on Tracee's name, you see a picture of them on the Wiz set and all three girls are sitting on Michael's scarecrow lap. Darling.

 

[Snow White luvs Peter Pan]

I'm crying out already! :boohoo: If we're hurting and feeling sad, his children, especially Paris must be 100 times worse. We lost our hero, our inspiration, our platonic love but they lost their true family and their world.

 

[MJsBollywoodGirl7]

Thankfully I had my Bollywood and my video and computer games to help me get through yesterday. I only listen 7 of his songs yesterday. And yesterday marked exactly one year since I last listen to him. You can blame my depression and the anxiety attacks that I am still suffering from. All over what had happen to him. :boohoo

Thinking of my friend and brother, Michael Jackson. He passed 8 yrs. ago today, he changed the world!

http://www.chicagotribune.com/subur...ckson-anniversary-st-0626-20170623-story.html

Visitors pay homage at Michael Jackson's family home on death anniversary

Even if he was the deciding factor to see Michael Jackson's childhood home, Addarius Hudson didn't want to get back in the SUV.

Hudson, one of 11 family members who traveled all the way to 2306 Jackson Street in Gary from Birmingham, Ala., over the weekend, wasn't exactly looking forward to heading all the way back home Sunday afternoon. The idea was made more painful by the fact that the rest of the group is off from their respective jobs Monday.

Still, he was happy to make the trip.

"I made the choice," he said, smiling as the rest of the Hudson-Glenn-Tolbert family marveled at the tiny house in which the King of Pop and his giant family spent their formative years.

"We didn't even think about his death (while planning the trip)," added Amanda Hudson, of Birmingham. "We just decided to come. And we learned some history, like how Jermaine was the lead singer until someone threw a baseball and it hit him in the throat."

Sunday was the eighth anniversary of Jackson's death at age 50.

Just as they have every year since Jackson died, throngs of fans from all over the world convened at the house-turned-museum Sunday afternoon. Patricia Scott Johnson, whose mom, Annie Scott, was first cousins with Jackson Patriarch Joe, said people as far away as France and Sweden and as "close" as Texas stop by her merchandise tent to peruse family pictures and meet other extended family members still living in the old neighborhood behind the Roosevelt High School football field.

Girtha Amerson, of East St. Louis, Ill. brought her grandchildren, Chanel Amerson, 17; and Darius Hoffman, 16. The kids stared awestruck at the house, which Girtha Amerson said has changed so much since she last saw it in 1996. There was no fence surrounding the entire house, she said, nor were there trees and other shrubbery.

"I was the biggest fan of him. I had this big old book all about him and had the game (The Michael Jackson Experience video game)," Chanel said. "I was 9 when he died, and I was just heartbroken."

"I was angry," Darius said. "Man, I used to like 'Speed Demon' or 'Smooth Criminal' in that game."

****** Hervey, 19, of Enid, Miss., was 11 when Jackson died and said he had no idea who the singer was until that very day.

"I'd heard some of his songs on the radio, but I was like, 'Why's my momma crying over this dude?'" Hervey said as his cousin, Bree Hardy, took pictures of the house. "Then I started watching his videos: 'That's a human dancing like that?' Then I started watching his live performances, and that was it. This dude's amazing."

Hardy, 25 and of Chicago, insisted Hervey and she go to see the house while he's here on vacation. He was having trouble letting it sink in.

"I used to listen to a lot of rap, and it was fine, but I didn't really connect to it. But with Michael, like if I'm sad, he has a song for that, or if I'm crushing on a girl, I can listen to 'P.Y.T.' over and over again," he said. "It's like Michael's talking to me."

It has been a long time since you've gone and I still miss all those calls at 03 AM sharing your ideas and those unforgettable laughs.

Michael Jackson changed my life forever and I'm very thankful for that. Beside it's a sad day, I think we shouldn't cry because he's not among us anymore. I think we should celebrate his life and legacy he spent with all of us during his 50 years sharing his talent with us.

Aww... this thread makes me bawl my eyes out....miss you much Michael

 

[maral]

25th of June is a day I dread. Each year I recall the horrible news&#8230;.. I remember how I felt&#8230; many lost a hero, a friend, a family member. I lost&#8230;&#8230;well I lost a chance to get to know a beautiful soul whilst walking among us.

Eight yeas have past. Life has gone one. But the pain remains deep in my soul. It mostly hurts knowing I couldn&#8217;t share your pain, your loneliness nor could I make it go away.
