I'm starting a new life tomorrow (July 25th)

Thanks a lot for the encouraging words guys, I'm definately on the right track now and I intend to keep it that way :)
 
Thanks a lot for sharing. It is very inspiring to read and hear about your thoughts :)

Often times, when someone that are close to our hearts passes away, our lives changes. We try to find meaning and what we can do and maybe learn. To turn something so sad and negative into something positive it's good.

I have a lot of faith in you, Chanya. Don't give up! *hugs*
 
Go Chanya!!! There is nothing like living your dream... Even if it doesn't come true (like seeing MJ in concert for most of us) ,there is still something sacred about dreams... Always hold on to them. And let us hear your music!
 
Good on you :) 'Man in the Mirror' I listened to really loud that night when he passed, it too is my favourite. Then after his memorial I sang along to that one and 'Will You be There' as it felt the right thing to do. I've always liked helping others, now I'm planning on finding a job that does just that. I'm trying to think of the right type of role for me just now. I feel the only thing left to do is put more good back into the world as it needs it :)
 
Thanks for all the nice comments. They mean a lot.

Update:

Planning to get at least a couple of friends together at my place on August 29th and perform a song or two for them. I want to do it as a tribute to Michael. Gotta start somewhere!:)
 
Dear Michael,

Rather than use your death as an event to mark the start of my new life, I will use the date of your birth. That feels much more right and comfortable. So tomorrow, on your birthday, I am performing my music for someone in the first time in years, and I will also start a new life as a better, more hard-working person. Rest in peace, my inspiration. Thank you for everything you were, and continue to be, for me.
 
I did it!! :D I set the goal I had for myself for today, which was to write and perform a small song that I would write myself. I originally planned to have a couple of friends over, but I figured it would be more special if I performed it for my son instead :) So that's what I did and he loved it and it felt great! :D Other than that, I spent the whole day with my son and my grandma when I wasn't doing chores around the house, so I really used this day well and I feel like I finally got the start of a new life that I needed, and I reached my goal for the day :) It's a great start I think! :) I feel so good and I'm happy! :D I managed to turn the birthday of my big inspiration into a new start for myself! :) I feel great about that! Thanks for all the support, guys! It has really meant a lot in my personal journey to get started on a new life and to reach this goal :)
