You guys are really sweet.. thanks for your kind words.. I did not go into major detale etc. I was at work on a computer I am not allowed to be on..
You know Michael has been a very positive thing in my life, sometimes too much.. When I tend to be interested in things I am pretty compulsive. I had a pretty rough upbringing (had great times too.. I'm blessed) but Michael became my excape. my drug.. Which was mostly good, I did not get into what others were. My wife is still suprised that I never fell into the worlds temptations knowing my surroundings. I have been around abusers, alcoholics, drug lords, and some large criminals in america.. MY grandfather was close to the mafia, had many different bad things about him.. My father was, well.. I wont get into that one. lol!, my aunt married what I believe is probably a pretty big criminal. (he does it for a living), a cousin (my childhood best friend) in jail for murder. (IDK if he really did it). Another cousin in jail from a drug deal gone bad.. The list goes on..
I am the first male in the family to never have touched drugs and get into that life style.. Even my brother has fell prey to the temptations of the world. I have been BLESSED..
I do think if I did not have Michael. (considering I was not allowed to go to church) It was forbidden. My mother 'christian', my father 'muslim'. Both believers but not fallowers in there beleifes. They just kept God (SOMEWHAT) out of my life, more of a secular idea of God.. So God gave me something (MICHAEL). GOd worked through Michael to hold me clean, untill God could get his hands on me.
Michael did become an addiction though, some negitive things have happened.. But that's a different story for a different time..
Michael just means a lot to me..
