Sun/Moon

561610_452483908135648_938487209_nWhen I went out for my break the past couple of days as I looked at the moon and sun both in the sky. I remembered something Mikey and I use to do, even when he was an adult.  We used to watch the moon, and when both the sun and moon were in the sky we would try to guess when they would be at the same height/latitude/meet. We would say things like: I say they meet in 10 mins., he would say today they wont meet or we say lets time it. We would just sit and move our heads back and forth until we were tiered or laughing or they would meet or had to go inside or get on with the day and couldn’t wait any more. We always tried to catch the moon at each stage and just say hi. He was always happy at watching the moon. The loved weather to watch a storm come in, the changes in the sky, clouds. When he was little and we took long drives and he would tell me all the things he saw in the clouds as we drove along. One time when they (Mikey & Maxx) did a show in Santa Cruz we had a room in the hills and the hot tub was cut into the hill. We sat there for at least an hour just looking at the huge full moon and all the stars. So today I found myself saying well I would say you’ll meet in 20 mins. Then I thought your mom really is crazy or at the very least came up with crazy things for us to do. I wish I could of stayed out to see if I was right but break isn’t that long. Oh well maybe next time. So the next time you see the morning or evening sun and moon sky how long do you think it’ll take to meet or wont they? Thanks for reading and supporting. Love Kathy

    Can’t stop thinking about our loved one the past couple of days

    Amazing how someone you have never met or spoken to can have such a positive impact on your life

    I just found out today that he died. I feel embarrassed for loving his music and just now finding out that he passed.

    I feel even worse knowing that I’ll never be able to see Micheal live.

    Kathy, I was feeling very lonely today and thought of Eyedea’s lyrics in “Saviour”. I thought “at least one other person knows this feeling”. I am so sorry to hear of your son’s passing. This site is a beautiful tribute to him. I just wanted to let you know that my heart and love go out to you.

    This made me tear up and feel a mixture of emotions. I think about how my anger and frustrations have lead me to being disconnected from my loved ones, my parents, my family. You are a beautiful mother, Kathy. Micheal was so very, very, lucky to have you. A family of beautiful, good hearted, and emotional people. It really melts my heart and turns me into a huge sap when I read your posts. I feel so crushed simply trying to imagine what it was like to experience the loss of your beautiful son. You are one of the many reasons why Micheal will forever live on inside of all of our hearts. Thank you.
