? Major Love Prayer ~ 3rd Anniversary ? Three years ago today, on September 25, 2009, a group of our fellow MJ fans began a tradition in honor of Michael Jackson.
At that time it had been a mere three months since what for many of us was the worst day of our lives. As a community, as a family, we were reeling in pain, seeking answers to questions we thought we'd never ask, turning to each other for comfort and understanding in our darkest hours. We had always been united in our LOVE for and with Michael, but now we needed this unity more than ever before, as in the depth of despair we realized that we are truly ONE IN LOVE.
As the world began to awaken to some of the truth of who Michael really is, we were also consumed by the need to do something. We could not let this LOVE be for 'nothing' or go unrecognized. We could not stand aside and sink into the abyss when our hearts had been so enlivened, inspired, nurtured by and nested in compassion with our beautiful teacher ~ Michael Jackson. We could not stand back and let him once again be misunderstood. It is a testament to this oneness in LOVE and to the depth of his spirit and influence that so many have taken it upon themselves to continue his work. His work is that of genius, innovation, awe, joy, dreams, magic, respect, humanitarianism, dedication, charity and a thousand words failing me at the moment ... all words contained in LOVE. For Michael everything came from LOVE, with LOVE, and was for LOVE.
And it is in respect of his legacy, to honor him, to carry forward that love and his life's mission to HEAL THE WORLD and its children that people came together in 2009 to "send out a major love" ... a monthly prayer/meditation that came to be called "Major Love Prayer". A monthly event of GLOBAL LOVE that crosses all borders and has no barriers, for love has no such limitations. We thank those fans who began MLP and we thank every single one of you who have have kept Michael in your hearts and wish to make his dreams come true, as we share in them with all the world. Let this continue always. For the planet, for our children, for Michael. Let us BE a major love.
