Gone too soon

I was watching Micheal Jackson's tribute concert where his family and friends were giving their speeches. It's unbelievable how much his life has touched the people around him, with an enormous influence. Seeing now he's gone, just like that, it's hard to accept that a life can be so fragile.

I've known only a few of his famous songs, until some of his old songs were brought up in the radio as well as this song "Gone Too Soon" which was sung by Usher in the concert. It was a touching and meaningful song. Most of the time we don't know what we have till it's gone. Yes, it's true. We always know it's true. Applying this to our life, we throw tantrums to the people closest to us, we show our disagreement disregarding how they feel, we sometimes ignored spending time with them as we thought we will always have them at our side. Remind this to ourselves always, our patience will always starts with the people closest to us.

Ups and downs happened to everyone and he might have suffered pain and sorrows and struggled through the ridicule like how we normal people are going through, no exceptions. After all, what we can feel and know from this superstar, was that he's keeping his faith and always reaching for his dreams.

Like what one of his friend had said in his speech. I'm glad that I live in this era to be able to see Micheal Jackson, and how he has taken his effort and love in changing this world. What I'm affected the most is realizing time slips away before you even know it. Don't take things for granted, celebrate each and every moment that we have with the one we loved. We might not be able to influence like how Michael Jackson is capable of, but it's the least that we can do. No sentimental sense needed nor genius brain, love is what we all know and can give.
