Michael Jackson's memorial


I'm currently watching Michael Jackson's memorial service live on the television at Staples Center, Los Angeles and I don't think I've stopped crying since it began. It's 2:14am and I'm tired and my eyes are sore but I refuse to not be a part of this, even from the other side of the world. This service is so powerful and I've had endless goosebumps since the lights went up on the stage Michael performed his final performance on. Stevie Wonder just performed a song he wrote for Michael and beforehand he said "as much as we feel we need Michael here with us, God must've needed him far more" and I believe him to be right. I believe God has Michael safe in his keeping, and I don't know, I think he's watching down from above with gratitude and love, where he can now maybe moon walk on the moon itself.

Earlier, Queen Latifah declared that "we had him, and we are the world." Now we don't quite have him like we did, but we had what he had to share, and now he can continue to share what he had - just from a farther distance.. without the fear of accusation, the fear of disapproval, and strengthened with an invincible soul

I love you
